Intermittent stalling L 6060 2022 random engine cutting out 10 minutes. 30 minutes 45 minutes. Any position starts out unable to start again usually not too much delay. I pulled the crossover two from tank to tank washed out. Both tanks with diesel. Fuel cleaner got no debris, checked it out with an endoscope so nothing is near, blew out fuel line coming to the water separator seems all clear water separator, clean new fuel filter. Not sure what the cause of could be any insights would be helpful.

That was incorrect, sometimes like shutting off the key,sometimes dropping rpm up and down then dying ,then a few try’s to start. I go look at clear water separator, and fuel seems to be pretty much to the top maybe half inch down.i pulled the crossover to the fuel tanks and wash them out and used endoscope to look inside. Didn’t find any debris used air compressor to blow hose from water separator back to tank

Sounds like it could either fuel delivery or an intermittent safety switch.
Try breaking the fuel line before the first fuel filter and confirm flow. Then proceed to check the flow after the first fuel filter, and before and after the secondary filter.
If there's good flow through the system, I would next try operating the various safety interlock switches to see if there's an intermittent switch failure. There should be a test procedure in the workshop manual for the safety switches.

Is there a ' Breather / Air Vent ' for your Fuel Tank ( never saw one without it )? If so, you might want to Clean it ... if it's in the Tank Cap, might have to Replace it, ... tank not getting air will shut down until the Suction/Vapor Lock is relieved.
Had a similar issue on a MF2705 when it was purchased. Yellow light would come on and the tractor would throttle down on its own. Dealer took it back a couple of times under warranty. It was some defective electronic sensor that needed to be replaced. Haven’t had issues in over 5 years since.
Had the same thing happen a couple of times. There was a small piece of debris in the tank that would be pulled into the tank's discharge port. The fuel line is too small to allow debris to pass to the fuel filter so it stays stuck there because of the fuel pump's suction. When the engine shuts down it releases and all is well until the next time.
Drain the tank and try using a piece of hose attached to a turkey baster to fish out anything you see in the tank.

If you have ever put an additive into the tank or into a fuel can, it could be a piece of the seal from the cap of the additive...Yup...I've seen that happen!
