RADIUM, you mentioned above that your electricity prices were very high. I checked and was surprised at how much NYS residents pay. You're paying $0.194 (19.4 cents) per kilowatt-h. That is high! Here in Ontario I pay between 5.1 cents and 9.9 cents depending on the time of day.
Small coolant heaters are usually 1500W. If you were to turn one on for 1 hour before starting, and used NY's high price, it would cost you $0.30 (30 cents) to pre-heat the tractor. In areas with more reasonable electricity costs, a single pre-heat could cost as little as 6 to 8 cents.
