Can anyone tell me why my Ford 3000 Tractor (gas) runs fine on level ground but when I drive over trenches (cross ways) too fast created by a middle buster the tractor shuts off?

Thanks

Do you have a kill switch under your seat for PTO or something? Or you have a wire shorting against the frame someplace under the dash or hood.

A loose electrical connection is my first though.. a fuel issue like an obstruction or weird float would be a possibility.. but would take a bit to kill.. the electric will shut her down immediatly..

Open or short in the ignition circuit....
