Sounds like you have a fuel delivery problem. The tractor runs out of gas and then after 5 to 10 min. enough fuel flows into the carb for it to run again.

To check this remove the drain plug from the bottom of the carb. You should have a continious flow that does not taper off. If it does taper off to just a small amount then this is your problem.

Where the fuel line goes into the carb there is a brass fitting that the fuel line screws into. Remove the line and then the fitting. You will find a screen filter that is probably dirty. If this doesn't fix the problem then you probably have dirt pluging the neddle valve and you will have to remove the carb and clean it. The carb is very simple to disassemble, clean and reassemble. GO FOR IT.

GOOD LUCK
