[QUOTE="ERNIBIGB, post: 680141, member: 3253"] Back in '79/'80 I worked on a huge earthmoving job (Tombigbee Waterway). In the winter the only thing they would use to help start the equipment on a cold day was the gas soaked rag trick. I don't remember any problems with the engines overrevving. Just pull the rag away as soon as it fires off. Granted this was before all the electronically controlled engines we have today. They NEVER used starting fluid and there were hundreds of pieces of equipment on this job some as large as 600 hp. [/QUOTE]
