No Elec. anywhere in a places. Thought of that. I'm Orig. from WV. and it gets cold. Not an enough extention Chord? That won't be a good thing. Another reason if I had to take it up there to the Properties. The Funk wasn't available for use back then. My Grandfather used to do it on the Gas 6 Cyl. Ford. He kept another Battery. Which I kept the old weak one I replaced. Cold Temp's on weak Battery isn't a good thing. Esp. with a Diesel. Which is how I done it before I was able to get the Thermal Start hooked up and working. In Ga. it's nowere near as cold Mtns.!! I'd would use the Tractor Battery to Start the Motor with a full Chrg. Which I don't have to use Two Batteries now with it working properly.
