One thing I can think of is did you push a wire or drill bit through all the passage holes in the carb?
Best I can remember John Deere used to include proper sized drill bits in their carb rebuild kits to clean the passages.
Also, I had a different brand of tractor that was a 4 cylinder that would do the same thing because of a bad condenser.
Just because you may have replaced a condenser doesn't always mean it's good. I've had more than one condenser bad right off the store shelf. It'll make one pull their hair out looking for another problem.

You all got it looking good. (y) It didn't look too bad when ya got it ...."cept for the 20 years of dust and tire rot.
I blew up one of your photos and noticed an in-line fuel filter instead of a sediment bowl. Not saying that's your problem, but it could be. A lot of gravity fed tractor fuel systems won't tolerate that type of filter. It won't let enough fuel flow fast enough. That's why a sediment bowl and a very fine screen were used. That's a few things to check. Let us know what you find. Might help another one day.

Glad you got it fixed. Sometimes we just need a reminder or a nudge in the right direction. (y)
