My John Deere 310A backhoe starts up just fine, however will not stay running. runs for about two and slowly lose power unitil the engine stops. Any Idea?

There is a small filter inside of the fuel tank down at the bottom where the shut off is located. You will need to take it out and clean or replace it. If you have not already replaced the main filter I would do it first. It sure sounds like you are not getting enough fuel flow.
