My H will start when it is around zero, but it is more willing if the battery gets warmed up with a charger for half an hour.
I think the real problem is that the gas is not evaporating when it is cold. Sticking a heater magnet on the intake manifold helps when it is really below zero.
I'm adding a second 6V battery in parallel to get more cranks out of it when it is cold. Choking the tractor for 2 cranks is plenty at 30F. At 0-10F it needs 4 or 5 cranks before it will fire.
It sounds like we will be sending you some more chilly air early next week...
