My 1944 "A" & my 1949 "C" both give me trouble when trying to start them in bitter cold weather...both are 6V systems, both start fine when weather is above freezing, both have magneto ignition & 113 motors...is this just inherent to this motor?? I have a 47' Massey (also 6V which starts right up & I have a 40-something 9N w/ 12V that starts with no trouble)...today, I had to move them all in anticipation of a big storm this weekend & I had to pop-start both the A & C after killing the batteries trying to start them. Once it warms up to above freezing, they seem to start fine, does anyone have any tricks to start these old Farmalls in cold climates? I live on the coast of Maine, it's cold 7 months of the year. Thanks for any help. Josh
