Now, that was flat cheating to use the space heater!! I used to get an old greasy rag or glove, wad it up tight, wrap a wire tight around it, dip it in some diesel fuel and light it up. Then hold it under the oil pan a while, then under the carberator to warm up the air in the manifold. Usually worked pretty good. It was a bit hard to use a space heater when we were several miles from a current bush!! And I never caught an engine on fire, either.
Another old guy many, many years ago moved hay with a D-6 cat with a pony motor. He always had to move hay when it was 20-30 below., never when it was 20-30 above. So he'd take a motor like the one in the video in the house all night. Next day, he'd bolt the motor to the fender/deck of the Cat, put a belt from the motor to the pony motor starting pully. After got the pony motor going, eventually he'd get the diesel running. If he had to move more hay the next day, he'd leave the Cat run all night.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
