Even though I will never see 55 again I�ve never owned (or tried to start) a vehicle that had a manual choke. Well, with my new 860, my lack of experience may have hurt me some last Sunday when I tried to start my tractor (and only succeed in running down my 6 volt battery) in the middle of the current deep freeze. My question is; what process do you use to choke when starting in cold weather? I was told I should have used full choke and cranked until it starts/tires to fire then go to about half choke, crank until it starts then keep it there until it warms up a bit. How do youall do this? I�m in Southwest Michigan and we generally get into the single digits with an occasional foray into the subzero temperatures during the winter. Currently the tractor is sitting in a neighbor�s barn waiting for spring. Thanks in advance for any advise you could give. Dale
