Did you set the carb when the engine was hot or cold? If done with engine cold, try making some mild adjustments when it is warmed up. Was the inline fuel filter you put on, the kind that you cut off a couple inches of gas line and add a filter to the line with rubber hoses? If so there is a filter in the top of carb where the gas line screws in? Was this filter looked at or replaced when you rebuilt the carb? There is also a screen in the top of sediment bowl that screens the outgowing gas. Anything clogged up will allow slow fuel flow allowing tractor to run fine tell the carb runs dry. While tractor is not running, slow fuel flow will fill carb back up over time and tractor will start right back up and run fine and then do the same thing. If you got alot of dirt and rust in your gas tank it will not take long to plug up a new or cleaned filter. It probably won't clog it completely up becuase the tractor will die from slow fuel flow first. You might also check the float level. It is suppose to be set at a certain level but I wouldn't think that would cuase tractor to die. If your fuel system checks out O.K. then you might look at the coil, but with you pulling the choke to make it keep running I am like you and think it is a fuel problem.
