That 720 started good for sitting in the cold. Just a few tips. I'm glad you know to warm the pony before cranking. Just have to be careful as the pony motors can be as expensive to fix as the whole rest of the tractor. When its decompressed you should let it crank a little bit more. The idea of decompressing it is to give it oil pressure as it cranks, so let it build some oil pressure before giving it compression. And I think you already know this but don't move the diesel throttle at ALL before cranking or while cranking decompressed because it will hydrolock and flood the diesel. Only move the throttle once you're cranking with compression and oil pressure.

im with you Wes, I don't understand the fascination people have with these cold starts, they are hard on engine, cause un-needed amounts of engine wear, and really aren't needed. Either plug the block heater in, keep it in a heated building, of give it some crack and get the thing running.

Well I didn't know any John Deere's had a pony motor start system. It is tough on engines and batteries to cold start in temperatures as cold as that. I'm a bit surprised you didn't let them warm up more before switching them off if only to help recharge the battery for next time.

they also start a lot easier with a block heater to warm the coolant, even better with heater in oil pan. easier to crank and engine thinks it's a warm day. also easier on bearings as oil is not as thick and flows quicker

Because ether burns so hot, I was told that on Class 8 tractor engines, you weaken the piston rings and put pits in the pistons and the engine needs more ether each time you start the engine. It essentially becomes addicted to ether.

Hey i saw the harvester and i wanted to tell you something. My family owns a harvester from the 1930s, i dont know the brand or any numbers because its just came off from age. Ill see if i can find out anytime soon and inform you. Along with the harvester, we have a 1010 with a kelley loader, two other ones i dont even know, there around 40s to 60s, no numbers, a model H (doesnt work and its cheaper to buy a better tractor than to fix it) a 4020 and a 5020. Also a 1948 ford 8N
