An electrical issue I guess it could be just didn’t see anything happen to lean that way yet. That’s why I was leaning toward something in the hudro. Just something bogging the engine down till I stop and turn off the pto. Maybe I’ll rig up a tank and only turn off the pto and let the tractor keep moving to see if it keeps bogging. I’m thinking that this is the reason the previous owner had gotten rid of this tractor.

The gutting of the fuel tank cap, is a good clue someone was indeed chasing the problem.
Does pulling the choke help when it is starving?
if so that pretty much says fuel issue.
when it starts gasping try yanking the fuel line off the carb and see if it pisses a good stream?
Also crud likes to lodge right @ the carb inlet fitting, also between the fitting and the needle valve seat, did you remove the needle valve seat, and blow it out good?
