Frank: I was wondering when someone was going to pick up on that. Only people (OK, and the wee animals etc.) feel "wind chill". Machines can only get as cold as the ambient temp, regardless of the icy breezes whistling past

i figured you meant that. But its real hard to warm up a little engine driving around in freezing temperatures. Esp . if your only burnin 1gph. Half goes out the exhaust, 1/4 goes to the wheels, 1/4 goes thur the heater to heat the cab. and that leaves nothing to keep the transmission and rad warm.

i have used JD HyGuard in my trans now for a year. (hydraulic oil)

i got a pair of kitchen drawer guides, going to make my variable blocker a sliding door.
