Why full throttle and then pull it back 1/2 way? And do not run a Cold Engine at full throttle? That's what your be doing, Starting and Running it at "Full Throttle" Kind of hard to Turn the key and hold the Throttle Lever. So IMHO. that's must be a Translation error.

Thank you sir! I assume it then says turn to ts for a period of time? Does it say antyhing about starting the engine and while it's warming up to go back to ts?

I use the block heater when possible, but there isn't always mains power around.

Over the weekend I got the decompression mechanism fixed. My dash lever now turns the decompression gizmo on top of the engine. The thermostat device isn't ready for primetime yet. The wire that leads from the ignition over to the engine is missing quite a bit of insulation so I need to pull a new piece as a replacement.
Since the weather is drier this week I can just keep the tractor parked near that house and use the block heater.
Thanks for all the input and instructions. I think with a small hose clamp and a new piece of wire I'll be able to get the cold weather start sorted out. Many thanks.
