    John Deere 855, lost 4-wheel drive, and fixed it.

    I lost the 4 wheel drive (front wheels) on my 1986 John Deere 855.

    JD 855 starting problem

    My low-hours 855 (1997 model, no glow plugs) has developed a pain-in-the-ass cold-starting problem. Even on non-cold days it will not start unless I (1) plug in the freeze plug heater for an hour or more and (2) place a 100-watt light bulb in the engine compartment for at least an hour. (The...
