The engine may start and idle fine, but run out of power or even stall at highway speeds.

What should I do if my tractor stalls?
1)- Try loosening your fuel cap. Sometimes the fuel caps will prevent the fuel tank from breathing and the tank will develop a vacuum. This prevents fuel from running to the engine and it stalls. After a few minutes/hours of setting the tank pressure will equalize and the tractor will run again.
