I've got four IH tractors with the British BD144 and BD154 engines. I sometimes have to start them at below 0 F temps. My oldest engine has the CAV in-line pump and air-governor. That is the hardest starting tractor of them all. The other's have CAV rotary-distributor pumps with mechanical governors. Much better cold starters.

Depending where you buy, the price is sometimes the same for the new fast-heat and burn-out proof plugs as for the old open-coil plugs.
