Gas will not gel in really cold weather like diesel can. To me that is about the only advantage of gas , new Dirsel tractors have high compression engines with direct fuel injection, and will start with the aid of their on board preheaters . But are loaded down with emissions and computer junk. Old diesel tractors like my 930 Case had lower compression and precombustion engines, My 930 will start with it’s manifold heater easily enough at 25F but if it gets much colder needs the bloke heater. Gas tractors can be temperamental in cold too, and carborators can ice over and cause the tractor to run rough. Easy to flood a cold gas too. I wouldn’t be surprised if more gas tractors aren’t offered in the future. It cost a lot to make the diesel emissions control systems, and they are a pain.

"Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
