the tractor did not stall

But it seemed to be under more load than it had been - and in 1st and reverse it seemed to have very little torque - I shifted to 3rd and it still seemed to have low torque but the tractor started moving forward very slowly a friend started pushing me and within a few seconds the tractor starting moving forward. But even though I was in 3rd it went with the speed of more like 1st gear. When I got the tractor back to the parking area I shifted into R and it went but was half normal speed then tried first again and it was also like half speed ---tractor felt as if it went from a 12hp to about 6hp. But that is only what it felt like I am pretty sure nothing actually happened from an engine compression point of view
