Suspect either fuel restriction or overheating. If the top of the heads are too hot to touch, it's overheating. Is it overdue for water pump service?

Try running with a portable tank mixed at 50:1 ratio (about 2 1/2 oz oil per gal of gas.) Plug the VRO oil line at the engine and disconnect the wire harness. See if the alarm stops sounding.
