j heitkemper: I think one of the problems with tractors, especially tractors that don't run much in winter, the active ingrediant in all these additives (Methyl Hydrate) evaporates from the tank in a few days, then you have no gelling or freezing protection.
I know when I farmed, my forestry skidder went every day all day, and wasn't near the problem tractors were only being started ocasionally The MH will stay in filters, lines and pump, but evaporate from tank in a few days. You add 20cc of MH in a 30 gallon tank of a tractor that has been parked two weeks, before you start it, that will eliminate the problem. Bear in mind I dealt with -20F to -35F every day, all winter, during my working years. We were also starting diesels, miles from any electricity, they had to go, it was our income.
