As soon as the tractor stops running, not 5 minutes later, check for spark, fuel and battery voltage. Does the tractor have a spark that will jump 1/4 in open air?* Will the gas drain out of the carb bowl in a steady stream and fill a pint jar in less than 2 minutes? What is the EXACT voltage at the battery? ( yes, you need a multimeter for that, not a worthless light) How do I know this part is defective? These are the questions you need answered before you attempt any repairs or buy a new part. Once you figure out if you have a spark or fuel problem, post back and you will get plenty of help to fix the problem. *If you dont own a spark checker w/ an adjustable gap ( NOT a light) buy one. In the meantime, an old spark plug w/ the gap opened to at least will work. Ground it to a rust & paint free spot on the engine turn the key on & look for a spark.
