Runs fine for 4-5 minutes then splitters and blows smoke out of exhaust, put it in low idle and will recover, put back in high idle will run for a few minutes then start sputtering again

That is restricted or insufficient fuel flow. Anything from the tank to the carburetor. Includes lines, fuel pump, if it has one or filter.

Thank you, already changed the lines and cleaned the tank and changed filter so got to be pump or in the carb I guess, was told the coil but was really thinking it was fuel problem

Could be a choke closing, float needle sticking open, or clogged carburetor vent. Possibly fuel in the crankcase too, check to see if the oil is thin and smells like gas.
