Has anyone ever added one of these? my tractor has horrible cold starting ability... Even at 35-40 degrees F it won't start. I have actually pulled the air cleaner off and stuck a lit propane torch in the intake on several occasions to make it start. without doing this I have completely drained the battery trying to make it start. I have the 2 cylinder with the decompression lever.
It doesn't have glow plugs or any kind of preheater that i can find. I know some older diesels had those intake heaters. I'm wondering about the mounting of the thermostart and installing the fuel line. Like how close to the engine it needs to be. Or if i can mount it right after the air filter so i'm not drilling the intake... I think some have their own reservoir for diesel and others have a fuel line from the tank. I'm not worried about the wiring that's easy..
Anyone have any advice?
