I was recently reading the owners manual for my 50 and stumbled across something that I must have missed discovering in the past. A heat valve on the manifold? I looked on the maifold on my tractor and sure enough there it was. It's totally rusted up though. I know I can buy a manifold for my tractor but do the new manifolds of today still have this feature? Id appreciate any responses. Have a great day!!

I just replaced the manifolds on my 520,they are not cheap,200 to 300 bucks for aftermarkets depending where ya getem. You can save a few dollars by reusing the valve as they hardly ever go bad.I also always keep mine in the cool position because it runs just fine after a little warmup.I believe some manifolds were destroyed because they were run in the hot position during summer weather. That's just me talkin

Yes the repo manifolds have the valve. The best way to keep them from freezing is to change from hot to cold ever so often. Run hot in the winter and cold in the summer. The valve has a tapered cone and by loosening the clamp and tapping on the valve it will go down a little bit and can be turned. You may be able to free yours up this way along with penetrating oil.
