My 75 MF 40 Industrial is up in the mountains outside where the avg temp. is now 20 deg. at night and 40 in the day, should I be concerned about water freezing in the block, I put a gallon of antifreeze in it. Thanks Tim

I assume it's a diesel. When it gets below freezing up here in Saskatchewan we just use a block heater as as general rule. I have a good starting Volvo and it will start down to about 15 without heat. As to the antifreeze, the gallon you put in will save it from any possible damage, but too weak antifreeze will congeal and not circulate if it gets too cold for it.
