I leave the electrical problem to others. But regarding the failing under a load, my MF135 drove me crazy on several occasions. Ran great under anything but a full, high load (10' mower conditioner, full throttle, heavy hay). I chased the electrical system, coil, fuel lines, filters, vapor lock etc. to no avail. I was convinced I had an overheating coil. The solution: Remove the sediment bowl and wire mesh screen, take a paper clip and insert it into each of the four holes going up into fuel tank. Up in the tank the fuel tends to gum up.
Yes, fuel seems to flow easily out the line but not enough under full consumption. During the winter months, while the tractors sits it forms these little gum balls and it is enough of a constriction to starve the engine.
