[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 9933, member: 82"] Direct injection is the best for starting but they are genearlly a bit louder. My old 731 with a Deutz was great starting no matter what the temperature was. Just hit the excess fuel button on the pump and it would spin over once and burts into life. The engine didn't come with glow plugs and i never knew about the excess fuel button. I would flatten the battery winding it over in the cold then i was told by a buddy that works on injectors to hit the button. One flick of the key woke the sleeping beast. With in-direct injecton engines, they loose heat when the air goes into the pre-comp when cold. I agree with ken on the 2203, the newer style engines seem to start fast, i'm not sure if the plugs heat faster or its the way the air is swirled with the new design but i found they do start easier.
