I think you may be thinking wrong - therefor - looking in the wrong area for a fix. Sounds like it is starved for air. Look carefully at the air intake "system" Sounds to me like the grimlins have it plugged. I have a IH 424D that I was bushhogging with one day. A little black smoke started coming out the exhaust although the tractor was not loaded. Finally it was just black, black, black smoke and no power. Loaded it up, took it to the shop, and found that wasps had built a nest in the intake and it finally shifted untill it almost completely blocked the air flow. (I had serviced the oil bath a couple days earlier). Hope this helps.
