my ryobi strimmer is fine when cool but keeps cutting out when warm?

The engine stalls when warm and is difficult to restart.

What is the matter with it?

Hi, ive just had this problem with my flymo maxi there are 2 likely reasons, forgive me for stating this one but it could be your fuel/oil mix is incorrect ,the second is your carburetor is possibly in need of a good clean .The problem you have is ,if your getting someone to maintain your strimmer the labour costs almost make it more worthwhile to just go out and buy a new machine !
