Thank you fixer. I know lots of people would rather have a shovel then a 1086 loader tractor, but I like those series. They are a good simple tractor compared to today's units and a step up from the 966 we used as a loader tractor. Feeding bales with a loader is a lot different that moving dirt with a loader. I only back up twice per bale - once at the stack and once at the feeder.
You gave me just what I needed - cold start info. I know some diesels (like the 560) never were good cold starting even though the engine was in fine shape.

It's been 25 years since I've had an 86 series and I think it's time for another.

But, I want to talk about my tractor! We didn't even own a lawnmower, and all of a sudden we had enough grass to feed all the starving children of the bovine world. Naturally, I talked
