Nice when they start right up like that! You guys got much snow up there in the BIG LAND ? We had about 9" dumped on us here Friday, sure was nice to get in some plow time.

Starts as good as my FarmTrac at + 25F since I replaced the glow plug relay. What was the water temperature with the block heater on? How long was the heater on?

cold start

Hi guys,

We gat about 3 feet of compacted snow in the yard now, just out and plowed a bit...cold today -30 this morning.

The block heater was plugged in all night, and I wasn't using the glow plugs, just cranking her over...
