    distillate

    I suppose asking this will show me up as a rookie, but I have often wondered what the composition of "distillate" is that older tractors were supposed to run on. Kerosene?

    JD 607 rotary mower

    Slow starts on John Deere 2640

    Inline engine coolant heater 1500w does the job, even when temp is -25F. Just let it warm a bit to thin the hytrans fluid before you start working
