Rick...I noticed that you didn't use the standard method of identifying whether it's fuel or electrical related. When it dies...spray some ether in the air intake...if it starts- you found the source of the problem (fuel). Also, when it dies...check the plug wires for fire...if none- you found it's electrical.

I guess we need Bob to walk by your tractor. Fred OH
