Well, after rechecking the valve clearance (it was correct), the dealer decided to drain the fuel tank and refill it with fresh fluid. After disconnecting the fuel line, fuel barely came out. The fluid poured out once the fuel cap was removed.
Turns out the fuel cap wasn't venting properly. A new cap and the power is back to where it was. Go figure!!!

Guess what? It wasn't the fuel cap. After months of trying to work with this dealer I finally got fed up and went to another dealer. The tractor dyno tested at 17 hp at the pto. The valves were adjusted a little too tight, readjustment gained a couple of hp. Turns out the return fuel rail was installed upside down (twice at the first dealer!). When it was installed correctly the tractor put out 29.5 hp at the pto. Finally the power is where I remember it. The first dealer thought I was nuts. I had to pay the second dealer $260 for his effort which the first dealer said he would reimburse but I'm still waiting.

I take it that he had to remove the rail to gap the valves. What did he do with the extra parts? ....
