Dave, I think the tractor vet is thinking of the British utilities with that engine when he says the fuel control should be halfway between run and stop. It sounds like you've got it right to me. To check, start the engine and run it about 1/4 throttle. Pull the cable back to where you hold it when you start it. 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?
