jd lx172?

My mower will start and run but after 5 minutes with the blades engaged the engine stalls almost like out of fuel. I disengage blades it starts and runs fine and will make several laps around yard without blades on, then engage blades and it will go another 5minutes or less and stall again..I was thinking a bad connection in the circuit somewhere but have no diagram

well finally figured it out myself...the quarter turn vlv to shut off the the fuel to the filter had plugged over time.
