Id drain the tank and try the filter again if it plugged before, The filter at 85 hours normally wont plug up so there must be some contamination. You might of gotton bad fuel or a fuel can with debris

having the same problem again tractor just dies and air in the fuel line.had this problem last fall and changed filters and worked fine for the 3 or 4 hours i put on it since. tractor only has 83 hrs on it. any help would be appreciated!
Air in the fuel line can mean an air leak at a fitting. Make sure all your fittings in the fuel system are tight and the bleeder screws are shut. You could also have trash in the tank blocking the fuel delivery. There is usually a screen on the tank outlet valve. Drain the fuel and make sure it's clean.
If that doesn't fix it, are you still under warranty? If so, call your dealer.

This is an old problem with these tractors dating way back. Their is a long tube on the inside bottom of the fuel tank that causes the fuel to run out to slow. The engine uses the fuel faster than it can be supplied,thus creating air and stopping the engine. Drain the fuel out of the tank. Remove the shut off valve from the tank. With a 1/4 inch drill bit, carefully drill up through the tube slowly. Be careful not to hit the threads where the shut off valve screws in. All Long dealers did this to these Romanian Tractors before delivering to the customer. trac
