[QUOTE="Dsth, post: 1652653, member: 38038"] how much work have you done with the tractor since September when you changed the fuel filter. I would suggest changing the fuel filter again. If that seems to take care of the problem, cut the removed filter open to see if it has a lot of visible debris in it. Do you fill from a fuel tank at home? Could possibly be sediment on the bottom of your tank that is getting into your tractor fuel system. black smoke could also be oil getting into the cylinders but that generally is not an intermitted problem, but keeping an eye on your oil level would be a good idea. white smoke would indicate coolant getting into the cylinders, but that is generally not an intermitted problem either. If you are using bio-fuel and storing in a fuel tank at home that generally has a short shelve life and could be your problem also. I would not think your fuel would gel up in Alabama from cold temps but jelled bio-fuel would plug your filters. If you have a turbo, it could be the start of a turbo problem. [/QUOTE]
