[QUOTE="laurencen, post: 140374, member: 14082"] have a couple 743s, they will fire right up at -5 to -10C they crank longer but with the glow plugs fire right up, at lower temps we have a heater in the rad hose and with this on at _25C it fires right up, what are the hours and previous history? both mine were poor starters when we picked them up, one had either used on it resulting in a cracked head. both needed rings as compression was low. I would check compression, also the speed the starter kicks it over also the voltage and amps when cranking, this will give you a idea what to start with but more heating is not the answer [/QUOTE]
