First of all, none of the Deutz tractors i've owned have been "hard starters". So, maybe checking everything on yours to begin with would be a big help. (includeing compression) You can put synthetic 15w40 oil in yours for the winter, and that would help "a lot". I would NOT run 10W as was suggested. If you go to your AGCO dealer, the Agco Allis tractors (5600 series) they sold a few years ago had an "optional" 110v heater that went in the engine shroud to preheat the cylinders. One of my tractors has it, and i did plug it in a couple times just to see how it worked. It worked very well!! My tractors start good with out it, so i normally don't use it. I think at the time, they were $85.00 at the parts counter. I'm sure you would have to order one to get one. To install, all you do is hole saw a small hole in the engine shroud, and in it goes!! As was said, holding a heat gun or hair dryer in the intake will help too. I don't and "won't" use ether in any of my tractors!!! Robert
