Hi folks. Thanks for the help over the weekend. Filled the tank with winter diesel, and added power service. I bought new fuel filters, found the shutoff in the little hole under the steering wheel ( thankyou!) and to my surprise the fuel was liquid in them. Changed them anyway, bled them, primed the little hand pump, started great. I let it warm up 45 minutes, sounded perfect for a 30 year old. I cleared some snow for a while and after 40 minutes of work, it started to stall again. Just barely got it back to the parking spot and it died. I tried to start it again, but no luck. It turns over and sure tries to start, but nope. Is it possible for the fuel to gel even after the motor is warm and running? ( It was only minus 20 today!) I have the block heater plugged in round the clock. If it is gelled again, what are some tricks people use, keeping in mind It sits outside, and heaters are not a possibility right now. Forecast is for -10 later this week, maybe that will help? Thanks everyone from a very new tractor owner. ( 1466 IH)
