I question the value of that complicated pony motor setup on those old Deere diesels for 90% of normal use.
I base that on what I saw at an auction sale a few years ago. On the sale was a well used 820 with the pony motor replaced by a steel plate to close the top of the Diesel crank case. On this plate was welded the mounts for a Delco Diesel truck type starter and a little battery box with a grp 22 car battery that was connected to the starter. I knew the tractor had not been started for the near freezing spring half day I had been at the sale, and I was really curious if that tractor would start, especially with that tiny grp 22 battery. When the 820's time came to sell,the owner pulled the compression release and hit the starter,the engine spun up instantly and lit off the instant he released the decompression lever.
