Problem with B&S 5hp engine

[koopa]

I've been having a problem with my kart for the last few weeks, usually after riding around for about 15 minutes or hitting a few hard bumps. The engine will stall, but after starting it up again it stalls whenever you give it gas.

Could it be my oil? Does a B&S 5hp (135212) have a low oil sensor?

Any ideas as to what's wrong with my engine?

did you at least check the oil level?

Oil level's fine, I just changed it last week.

It might have something to do with the carburetor. i dont think it has a low oil shut off sensor.

If its old enough to have an adjustable carb, richen it up.
