Ryan, Need to get you back in the field, so I'll offer my best suggestion. Are you getting good continuous fuel flow to the carb from the tank? Sometimes debris will drift over the assembly bowl inlet at the bottom of the tank and lodge due to the suction. When the tractor dies, the suction disappears and the carb fills up. The only thing that makes me wonder about this is the length of time it takes for the engine to die and the apparent regularity. Assuming all the parts you replaced are good, the only ignition component left to replace is the coil. Those generally get very hot and fail. I doubt that's your problem because you are able to start the tractor right back up, definitely not allowing the coil time cool down. It could be float level, if it's not letting enough fuel in. I think some people have pinpointed lack of fuel by choking the carb to cut back the air. Try this next time your tractor sputters. If it helps, you'll have to work backwards along the fuel line to find the blockage. Good luck, Chris
