So I started it today about 10 degrees (ran it 3 times last week much colder). Started fine and did one pass on the driveway (plowing) and all the sudden I could hear her starting to gasp for fuel....high tailed it for the carport and made it and she died. Went to the gas station picked up the 911 (red) and the treatment (white). Went home poured 4 ounces of red 911 in the tank, unscrewed the filter and ran some diesel out.....saw the filter and knew I guessed right...(see pic). Put new filter on (I had an extra!) filled bowl halfway with 911 (red) then screwed it halfway on and let it fill with diesel until dripping, then tightened it. Started tractor....started right up. Ran her the past 4 hours doing some chores then filled her up and treated her with the white bottle. Lesson learnt......treat the diesel fuel especially if you will be operating it every few days in the negatives.....
