Brian, I just purchased a John Deere JD401C industrial tractor 4/7/99. I had some intermittent symptoms not quite like yours but I think it may be the same problem!!! The symptoms would vary with the time the tractor had ran but I noticed that it would act up when the fuel would get down to 1/4 to 3/8 of a tank. It is a 219 cubic inch diesel engine. You have a supply and return on the fuel system. I noticed that when it happened if you opened the fuel cap there would be a vacuum. The return of the fuel line was pinched. I haven't had a problem since!!! The return fuel line had a small piece of hose between the number one injector and the return at the top of the fuel tank. Good Luck!!! Paul
