Well, because I am a bit over 3000 miles away, it will be a bit difficult for me to diagnose, but one thing I can tell you is that hanging parts will be the MOST expensive way to fix it.
By all means, start with the basics. Check for the obvious things. Warning lights (check engine) are a good starting point. If the light is on, there is a code. Maybe a hard fault. That is the first thing to deal with.
Open the hood. Look for simple things like loose wires, loose hose clamps - especially in the air intake ducting.
If you feel capable of doing some repair work on your own, I strongly suggest that you invest in a scan tool. Many of decent quality and good capability can be had for less than $200. Use it 3 times, and it will have paid for itself in money saved on shop diagnostics.
The sad and unfortunate truth is that there are 101 things that can cause your problem. There are no short answers. Especially not from thousands of miles away. Anybody that gives you a short answer basically has NO IDEA what they are talking about. Ignore them.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
