Hodge, I knew from past experience you were one I could poke back without starting oil war III. I talked to my Grandma in Va. the other night, she said they had some snow and it was pretty cold. I guess you are having first hand knowledge of cold starting your orange beast. Hope all is well up your way...:D
Compared to some it isn't that cold, but 22 is cold enough to test out the skidsteer (we bought it towards the end of last winter). I run Rotella in it, and keep it inside a barn. I hit the glow plugs this morning for about 30 seconds, and it fired right up. It hadn't run in about a week.
I love the purr of that Kubota 4 cylinder in it.
