Jason, I would say it was fuel starvation, fuel filter(s) or fuel line is partially clogged. If it is not the fuel filter(s) then the favourite place for that model of tractor to clog is at the outlets at the bottom of the fuel tank. If you look under the fuel tank you will see the outlet at the bottom of each side of the tank. First thing would be to check the shut off valves at the bottom of the tank to make sure they are turn on fully. If the inlet pipe to the primary fuel filter is removed the fuel should flow the full of the pipe. If it doesn't the problem is between the tank and the fuel filter.
