Engine Cutting Out on Craftsman Lawn Tractor

Welcome to MLMF Bill. I took a quick look at the owner's manual for your tractor, and on page 25, or so, it does say:

INTERLOCKS AND RELAYS
Loose or damaged wiring may cause
your tractor to run poorly, stop running, or
prevent it from starting.
• Check wiring. See electrical wiring
diagram in the Repair Parts section

So peeking at the diagram, seems there are three switches in there somewhere. One on the seat, one for the clutch, and one for the deck clutch.

I'd start by checking them to see that they are connected properly, and that the contacts are clean, and see if that does the trick for you.
