I think Jim is on to something. Overcranking a 6 volt starter with a 12 volt battery will melt it down in a hurry. When you "redid" the tractor two years ago you should have had the starter rebuilt for 12 volts if you wanted to run a 12 volt battery. Something in the system is not up to par.

On a side note, what oil are you running? The crappy starter could have enough umph to turn over the motor in the summer, but not turn it over with thick oil in the winter. Just a thought.
