Make sure your fuel tank outlet is not clogged. Pull the line off that goes into the filter housing and fuel should gush out. If it dribbles or is intermittent you've found the problem. If not make sure the filter head doesn't have debris in it.

Are you talking about small line by bleed plug

Make certain the fuel pump is working. Your model has a small reserve fuel tank before the fuel cooler and perhaps you are running off it until it is empty.

You might want to check to make sure your seat safety switch isn't bad or misadjusted. I had this same problem and the switch kept switching off the tractor.

Make sure fuel tank is venting. Try operating engine with shop towel covering fuel tank filler neck.
