400 quits when gets to operating temp.

Posted by Scott in Wisconsin on July 25, 2006 at 20:51:30 from (69.11.254.79):

Tractor is a Farmall 400 gas. When it's cold the tractor starts and runs great, until it gets to operating temp. Then it starts to lose power, cough, choke, back fire, and quit. I won't do anything to the tractor but turn the key off and let it set for a while and cool, maybe an hour. When I come back, it'll fire right up and run great again, until, again, it gets to operating temp, and quits.

History:
Last year it got out of time because the gear on the shaft that drives the distributor was worn. I replaced the shaft/gear, rebuilt distributor; new cap, rotor, plugs, wires, points, and condensor. Also went through fuel system, put carb kit in carburetor.

Any ideas what is causing this?

Thanks,
Scott
