So far so good with the new solenoid, but I didn't really use the tractor much this winter when it was cold. Never did get the block heater installed tho...

Cycled the glow plugs a couple times, 1/4 throttle and it would fire up, puff for about 10 seconds then even out. I'm due for hydro fluid change, so I may try to get the block heater put in and do a coolant change as well.

I even washed and waxed it the other day, at least the engine tins. Had to get the buffer out to clean it up, it got pretty oxidized when I had to leave it outside for awhile a couple seasons ago.
Same experience.
That wacky irregularacting solenoid has been the one and only warranty issue I had. My differential lock mechanism is a bit out of adjustment, just have not got around to it.
