I have a 1994 Chevy K2500 plow truck with the same problem. I am in northern Michigan and the pole barn is almost like a screen porch. No insulation and lots of fresh air. I have been running a diesel-fired salmander heater I got at Tractor Supply. Note they sell it as being able to run on kerosene or diesel. I've been working on the truck, off and on for a few days and it works fine. I get kind of sick of the noise since it has to run constantly. 17 degrees F here right now and it gets the shop to around 50 F. It is working for me no issues. I do have a CO detector in there.

I might try to drill it out and retap.

If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
