I just had the same basic problem with a Jubilee last week. The customer was cutting his pasture with a bush hog and he could go about 2/3 of the way around the field before the tractor would start to sputter and then stop. After setting for a minute he could start the tractor and go through the same process again. What I finally found after much scratching of my head was that the man that he had rebuild his carburetor had installed a new sediment bowl that mounted to the inlet of the carburetor and it wasn't the right one for the Jubilee. When he mounted the new sediment bowl assembly on the carburetor so that the fuel line would go between the head and the manifold, the cross drilling in the banjo bolt did not line up with the outlet passage in the sediment bowl. The cross drilling was in the round passage and would not let gas into the carburetor as fast as it was using it. After I rerouted the fuel line and turned the sediment bowl around the problem was solved. I don't know if this is your problem but it is worth checking out. I hope that this helps.
