OK, next stop is the Funny Farm.
Tractor starts really easily, any weather. Runs perfectly between 10 minutes and 45 minutes.
Then, out of nowhere (though revs usually rise just before) the engine cuts out.
After bleeding the fuel system it restarts.
I've tried:
New primary fuel filter and housing.
New thermostart tank and associated pipework.
New rubber olives throughout the fuel system.
Reseated glow plug (which doesn't work and seems pretty pointless) with ptfe and fibre washer.
Fuel tank removed and rinsed with clean diesel.
Fuel tap and filter removed and cleaned.
New fuel lift pump fitted.
Fuel tank brim full.
Doesn't seem to be any water in the filters (doesn't run long enough for it to build up!)
This is really driving me crazy as the tractor is great in all other respects, but this is making it useless.
