You have already provided the answer to your own question.... The bowl is full of ice. No doubt the filter, line and tank strainer are as well. If you're lucky... the pump is not. What I have seen happen... you get a tank with a bunch of water in it. Tractor doesn't do much, doesn't get warm... ice stays put. You run it for 4 hours and get it good and warm, the ice melts. Some makes it to the bowl and filter. Some remains in the tank well and strainer. So... heave the filter. It's 5 dollars and 50 cents for a CAV filter. If you have good flow from the tank when you pull the filter, consider yourself lucky. If you don't... you're going to have to chase that back and probably remove the tank shutoff/strainer and clean the ice out of it. Install a new filter, fill the tank and bleed it... Should be good to go. If I have to remove the tank strainer I use a shop vac loosely in the filler neck to hold the fuel up in the tank. I avoid using alcohol concoctions if I can avoid it. Problems...

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
