I've had to pull the battery off my little 5020 Allis and put it in my heated man-cave on a charger for an hour or so to get it started when the temp was below zero Fahrenheit.
I'm curious as to how my recently bought JD 4010D loader tractor will start when it's really really cold. Probably be ok...has good batteries...but I figure I better clean up the battery cables...and I do need to tear down and clean/freshen up the starter too
One thing I've learned about diesels in cold weather is to keep some fuel conditioner in the fuel. Folks in Oklahoma don't think about diesel fuel gelling....and lots of farmer/ranchers lumber into winter with the tractors full of summer blend fuel. This is fine most of the time...however it does sometimes get super-duper cold here. Summer diesel ain't no good at or near zero degrees!!
