Thanks folks!!! Got it going,the problem was water (in my head..........)
When I went to get some hay last week (was just at or above freezing), it started cutting out and starving for fuel. The guy that I got the hay from has an old Fendt tractor and said it always did the same thing so he just took the filter out. Sooooooooooo, when mine stopped again yesterday evening, first thing I did was pull the filter (PITA setup that goes in the tank). When it wouldn't start after heating, cussing, and kicking, I posted here. Got up this morning, read the replies and got started. After nothing worked, I had a stroke of genious and took the fuel line off at the injector pump and had no fuel. Tried to blow air into the tank to get it loose, tried to blow through the line, nothing. Must really be froze. Took a bunch of stuff apart to get to and remove the tank, emptied and cleaned it and still couldn't blow through the line.
Took it off and found a valve (jet may be a better word) that closes when you remove the filter. Remember, the first thing I did was remove the filter.
Bright side of the story is, I now have a new filter, fresh winter diesel, clean lines, tank, and surrounding area, got rid of a bunch of extra nerves I had building up, and my tractor runs like a top.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
