The engine will slow down and start to kill until you hit the start-up position, at which point it will wind up to about 1900 RPM. I would get the biggest cables you can. Build a battery box to hold two 6-volts with the highest CCA you can get and move the batteries close to the starter. Throttle position makes a huge difference when starting. Set it to 1/4 throttle. What size tank heater do you have?
