[QUOTE="chevytaHOE5674, post: 1787063, member: 19817"] No glow plugs 35year old 6cyl ford tractor. Cold start advance on the pump is the only "help" it has. Sometimes a set of jumper cables from the pickup are needed to start it below zero and not plugged in. The heated shop costs a bit to heat but I work on and maintain all my equipment over winter. Come spring/summer everything is ready to use. I also wrench on paying customer equipment all winter as well. Sitting outside my Kats 1500w heater rarely every cycles off. The rate of cooling off the engine block is enough that it runs 99% of the time. Different strokes for different folks. I'm setup to feed daily around when I have the timer running. No need to waste electricity the rest of the time when I know I won't be starting the tractor. [/QUOTE]
