If it was used until the night before and inside or at least out of the wind it was probably not competently cooled off. That used to be obvious when I was logging, if you run them till dark and start them in the dark in the morning all was well, if you take a day off it's totally different.

Russ, I always liked seeing the propane fired coolant heaters on the forestry/logging equipment that came in from WAY up north. Always thought that was a neat way to deal with cold way out in the middle of nowhere. If we have to leave our combines at one of the other farms where we can't plug them in when we have a late corn harvest, we just have a small generator we plug them into while we are getting everything else around and all the machines greased and checked over.

Got a Woods z-turn mower with a Kubota 722 diesel. Came with a snowblower. That thing is as cold blooded as they come. I did after a year and a half, get a block heater that "should" fit (after 3 that clearly wouldn't fit.) I wouldn't even dream of trying to start it in cold weather without preheating. Someday I gotta try to put that heater on.

Got a gas tractor with a back blade and a pickup with plow, so I am not desperate to use the Woods.
