When it is going to shut down i pull the choke out which seems revive it for a bit then eventually quits. I notice the fuel filter is only about half full after shutdown which indicates its not getting enough fuel? Someone suggested its vaporlocking?

It's rare these motors vapor lock.
It's not single state, it's
solid state ignition.
Why did you replace the stator? That is only for charging. Solid state ignition doesn't use the stator for anything.
It's common for the fuel filter to not be completely full. Does it still have a fuel pump?
Sound like a bad magneto to me. But better check to make sure it's losing fire and not fuel. These mags are so simple. I don't understand why people struggle with them. No points, needs no electricity to run. Just gas and a good spark. Your losing one or the other, figure out which one.
