I have a Mahindra 4530 4WD . I found this site while looking for solutions for the spitting/backfire it experience at high idle under load after 30 minutes or so of running. Hope this site will give me some insight to the issue.

Could you explain " high idle under load".? Is the engine lugging at the time?
Many have had a timing issue(me included on my 5530) where we had to advance timing a little, but before you change anything make the normal checks first.
Fuel filter, fuel screen(in tank) fuel hoses, gas cap on tank(make sure it is venting),clean fuel(cold weather/moisture problems)
You might give more specifics on what is happening and others here may be of more help.
Good luck

Before jumping into the timing issue make sure you check fuel flow. I would change the fuel filters and when you have the primary filter off turn the fuel on and make sure you have full flow from the tank.

You have a cracked fuel line. It's sucking air causing a little miss. I had the same problem, it's covered under warranty and must be pretty common. I told the dealer what it was, they came out and picked it up replaced the cracked fuel line and the emission sensor that was flashing while they were at it. Nice tractors except for the bugs. You may search your model and cracked fuel line and find some more information. Good luck, William.

Did this just start in cold weather? If you work it for awhile while spitting does it stop spitting or get worse? 30 minutes sounds like the programmed warm up of the tractor after which timing reverts to normal. If youre not making enuf heat [not working hard] the engine will then wet stack. Your symptoms are classic of this.

Did you ever get your tractor running right. My 4530 is doing exactly what you described for yours.
I changed fuel filters drained the tank.
Dealer can't replicate, had it in the shop 3 times. It starts loosing power after about 20 minutes with a bush hog.
Can't mow and acre before it starts acting up. A blue or grey smoke comes out.
It will sit and idle fine.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

- mahindra 6530 4x4 2013 .Bought at J5. Great dealer,i would highly recommend
Hello My 6530 done the same exact thing and it took a couple tries but the dealer finally diagnosed it as a injector pump that need to be calibrated. They pulled it and sent it off the be fixed and i havnt had any problems since. J5 tractors is the dealer i bought my tractor from and they have been great so give them a ring if there is one close to you.
