Water & other crap, in the fuel?
Is the fuel in the filter somewhat black?
Have you ever cleaned the tank and inspected the fuel lines and valve bungs?
It not, it would be a good idea to do that.
After all these years the lines get hard as a rock crack & start to deteriorate somewhat internally.

The oil and filter was last changed about a year ago, I was planning on changing it again soon. I have never done anything with the fuel system yet. I bought the tractor 3 years ago, the PO told me he had the tank cleaned about a year before that. Shining a flashlight in there it looks clean. I assume they changed the filters too. I have new ones so I will put them on. The lines don’t look very old, but it wouldn’t hurt to put new ones on. I have had issues on other things with them disintegrating inside. I will also check for water, but I doubt that’s it.
