chap who has a Kubota KND3 which he has built into a garden tractor. He must
have been looking at the NG archives as he offered a solution to my starting
problems. His tractor installation includes six metres of heater wire (of
the type normally used for frost protection on water pipes) wrapped around
the head and fuel pipe. Warming the engine with this for ten or fifteen
minutes apparently makes all the difference even in summer. Perhaps I should
try a kettle full of hot water in the hopper
He also sent me the following link:-

which shows another KND3. Am I right in thinking that this is a very similar
colour to the 'salmonella pink' of my own engine?:-

Please correct me if I'm wrong as my colour vision is not all that it should
be.
