Check your seat safety switch. Does it do the same thing if you engage the PTO?

checked out seat switch and it has been by-passed I should say that when I depress the forward and reverse pedel the tractor will start to move about and has you press the pedel harder the engine will die. Also checked out the if pto and it does the same thing, when you turn the switch the engine dies. thanks for the help.

Sounds like it dies under a load. Have you checked or changed the fuel filter latley? That may sound to simple but sometimes that's all it takes.

Yes, I've change the fuel filter and the air filter. Thanks for the help.

Does anyone know of a good repair person in the San Diego east county that could fix this tractor? Thanks again for the help.

I think you have a faulty safety switch or it is incorrecty bypassed. If it shuts down with the PTO on (nothing attached) then it isn't dying under load. I would check the seat safety switch again.

I assume it throttles up fine when not moving? If it runs good at WOT before touching the pedal then I would not suspect starvation.

Thanks for info I have found the problem is in the safety system. I have taken a hose clamp and by-passed the safety switch on the pedal. The tractor now works fine. Keep Smiling.:thumbsup:
