Folks, just wanted to let you know that I did get my tractor to crank on the very evening of the day that I had first posted my plea for help. Didn't even have to charge the battery! It took a few times but it eventually decided to crank up and run. The only difference is that it was about 10 degress warmer than the evening before. I guess my tractor cranks ok down to about 40 deg and that's it. Any lower and it just balks. Turns out that it rained cats and dogs the Saturday we were supposed to dig post holes and so we postponed it a week. Anyway, to answer some of the responses to my post, I was getting a light colored smoke but it was sort of hard to tell because the shed it is parked under does not have lights yet. I was judging by it a streetlight in the backyard. As for the throttle, I would pump it sometimes, and sometimes hold it down about halfway. The 750 does use the throttle to shut off. You can crank it up and take the key out of the ignition and it will continue to run. It only shuts off when you pull the throttle all the way back. As for the lights on the dash, when I switch to the left the red light on the left side comes on. When I switch the ignition on, the red light on the right side comes on. So, I guess I need to get some fresh diesel fuel and change out the old stuff. Might need to check out the glow plug too. How can you check to see if it is working correctly?? Also, is there anything I can do (sort of like a tuneup) to make it easier to crank up in cold weather. Thanks for all the helpful replies, folks. Keith

I have a Leinbach post hole digger that came new with the 9" inch auger. I was wondering if there is a 6" auger available for it and if so, what price is it? Who would carry them? Also, are these augers sort of standard (to some extent) in the way they attach to the gearbox output shaft?? Would a 6" auger from another brand fit mine??
