what I have been told (by the county health dept neighbor of mine) is to save you money on the addatives and if your system needs help, get some milk let it go sour (open it and leave it on the countertop for a week (until it smells) then dump it down the toilet and flush. heck of a lot cheaper than the store purchased additives.

on older JD 2cyl diesels they had a compression release. On my 830 jd (diesel) the instructions for startingthe tractor is; start the pony engine(or if you have the electric starter just go to the next step), pull the decompression lever, engage the pony motor clutch (or push the starter button), once the oil pressure has risen and the engine is turning over well you release the decompression lever and the engine will start. The reason for the pony is in extreemly cold weather you can engage the pony motor with the decompression lever, and lock themin place, the water pump on the pony pumps warm water to the big engine warming it, when the engine is warm you can start the engine. I have started my tractor at 25 to 30 below zero in a unheated shed, just by letting the pony run for 20 minutes or so. the pony is a lot more maintence than the electric starter option but the ability to start the tractor in cold weather, (works great when you need to go and push snow.
