I agree! We use our Farmall M extensively in the fall to run an auger and in cold weather had icing problems. We made a somewhat unorthodox fix but it works wonders. First find a steel tube that fits over the muffler and still leaves a 3/4" gap around the edge. Find an old disc blade to fit over top of muffler and weld to tube. use some self tapping screws around bottm of tubing to tighten tubing to muffler. At the top of the tubing cut a hole and weld on a pipe which has same outside diameter as air intake with the head removed. Now just find and old radiator hose or car exhaust piping with a 90 degree bend which will fit between muffler and air intake. Voila! Preheated air, and you can run in the coldest weather with no icing probelms, and when spring comes lossen screws and remove, replace air intake head and you are back to original. We have used this for 15 years and works well on our super M/ H as well.
