[QUOTE="Atimm693, post: 1648436, member: 26138"] Some of it is just nature of the beast, those old tractors just didn't start that well, it's why gas tractors were still common at the time. They would start reliably for winter chores. If you have the tooling, check the injection pump timing. That can make a huge difference. Injectors may help, but may not. Best thing to do IMO is just plug them in. Saves a lot of hassle. If that's a tractor you use regularly, get a timer set up so it runs for an hour or two before you need it. I've heard about some guys rigging up an intake heater from a Cummins. Would probably help. [/QUOTE]
