I'm Having Rough Idle Problems With My Cub Cadet Rzt-54 Kw.

While moving this afternoon my engine start acting like it was out of gas. The tank was full and it restarted with no apparent problem. It ran for five minutes or so then did it again and again until I finished mowing. It would run fine the start cutting out. It sputtered with the PTO engaged and disengaged. So having a load on the engine wasn't a factor? Any guesses? I almost sounds Like a kid reving a car? Vroom Vroom Vroom??
