[QUOTE="skidsteer.ca, post: 9934, member: 307"] I meant to say the Isuzu start equal to the Kubota withOUT the use of glow plugs. Modern diesels seem to have made great strides in cold weather starting. Also important for cold weather is a good thermostat that warms the engine quickly, diesel hate running cold, thinner oils like 5/30 or 0/30 or 40. Warm up time. Give the engine and the hydrostats time to warm up. 5 minutes of idling can save you alot of grief. Plug the engine in whenever you can. Electricity is cheap. Ken [/QUOTE]
