Like the title says, occasionally she'll start to stall out on me but if I let off the gas it idles back up. It almost seems like it could be the sensor under the seat? Would it help if I adjusted the seat suspension adjustment handle so it's more plush / less stiff? It's very hilly here & now that I think about it, I can't recall that it's done it anywhere else or even on flat ground here... Any ideas?
You are already on the money! The seat switch is the likely cause, adjusting suspension wouldn't help I expect, but you may be able to adjust the switch.It almost seems like it could be the sensor under the seat?..It's very hilly here & now that I think about it, I can't recall that it's done it anywhere else or even on flat ground here...

My MX5200 will start to stall if I adjust my weight on the seat, so you may be on the rigtht track

On my L3200 I used a zip tie to hold the lever on the seat presence sensor down. It was easily reversed when I sold it (and a couple times when it just came loose on its own). Not sure if your sensor is the same. It had 3 wires going to it, so would have been more complex than jumpering things closed to bypass the switch. Not rocket science hard, but definitely harder than just throwing a zip tie on.
I havent bothered with it on my new L4060. The cab stops me from standing to look at the tips of my pallet forks, which was a primary issue on the L3200. So it hasn't really bothered me enough to bother looking. I have the air ride seat, so the sensor is burried in there, as you can't flip the seat up. Not sure if that an air ride seat "feature" or a cabbed tractor thing. When I asked my dealer about how to run the PTO when I wasnt in the seat, the answer was either you can't, or put something heavy in the seat. Something heavy is an easy enough work around when I need to run the PTO generator, which I havent needed yet, I havent bothered with bypassing the wiring.A zip tie worked on my B3350.
The L6060 was more of a task. I ended up removing the seat to disassemble it and fabricated a jumper wire assembly for the operator sensor switch which is indide the seat.
