Have a possibly boneheaded question but that never stopped me before....
Here in NW Missouri, we are supposed to get yet another winter storm that includes 8-9 of wonderful snow plus single digit temps..
Our Deutz 5506 is really hard to start when cold so I"m toying with the idea of making sure it"s fueled up and let it run for a few days while the storm does its thing. That way I can keep our lane clear.
Have any of you more experienced/seasoned guys ever done something like this?
If it's hard starting, try doing like I do on my DB990. I use an electric hot air gun, like you use to strip paint. in the air intake. If the tractor will turn over it usually starts right up. You'll need to keep the gun in the intake for a minute or 2 till she starts warming up. Much more better than ether or letting it run.
