1-Starts at least as well as gas hot or cold. Burns clean so flooding is much less of a problem too.

2-Not a problem here in Alabama. Check with your local propane distributors though.

3-Lots of forklifts, generaters, and welders still use propane. The shut off solinoid, vaporiser, regulater, and even carbs are actually pretty generic. JD still has some parts, also google up "Impco".

4-Depends on the tractor. Usually a bit less. Certain JD tractors on LP can be worth a fortune.

5-Gallon for gallon about the same.

6-Different risks, but no more or less dangerous than gasolene. ALL WAYS turn off the fuel when not in use.

I've owned a half dozen LP tractors, and deal with LP welders and forklifts daily at work.
