I used to have several gas tractors that I used everyday. I finally got tired of the constant maintenance. They would usually start but they rarely ran "right". Always having to play with the choke and then fouled spark plugs etc. I have replaced every "work" tractor with a diesel. Yes I have to plug them in to start but most of the gas tractor around here have to be plugged in the winter too. PLUS they run right when they do start. I will fix the diesel fuel system every ten thousand hours over the slow death from gas repairs. I don"t know if it is the newer fuel but I have came to hate gas motors. It seems that the fuel will go stale in just a short time. I even use fuel conditioners. I am even looking at a diesel lawn mower. I will do a jig when the gas barrel goes down the road.
The best starting tractor I now own is a JD 5210. I bought it used out of Arkansas it had been on a catfish air pump. I never thought about it not having a block heater. I used it the first winter and it would start down to 5 degrees without anything. I have installed a block heater. I also had some Duetz tractors in the late 1980s that started very well. Several neighbors have Kobota tractor and they say they start well.
