When I start my tractor it runs fine until it warms up to running temptature, then it starts missing and loses power. If i shut it off then start it right back up it will run fine for a minute or two and then it starts to do it again. i drained the tank, replaced filter, and put new fuel injectors in it, but it didn't seem to help. any ideas?

Tony,

Next time it shuts down, crack the air bleed on the fuel filter and see if it has air in it or fuel only--with no bubbles. If the filter has air in it then there's a restriction somewhere in the fuel line. Another thing to check is the fuel hose between the filter and the injection pump. My old 172 Ford had a pinhole in it and it allowed just a little air into the pump, causing erratic operation. Don't know if that model has steel tubing or rubber hose like ours, but figured I mention it as a possibility. Last thing I can think of--something wrong with the governor or the pump??
