Hard Starting 1980 Kohler Generator
My generator does not start at around 55 degrees or lower. If it is
warm, the gen cranks right up. This model does not have glow plugs. If
I plug in a 110 volt radiator heater, the gen starts right up after a
couple of hours. Is this normal for this generator? If not, any
recommendations on a fix? All fluids and filters are new, and
injectors rebuilt summer before last.

Related to this, has anyone used a propane engine heater? Or some 12
volt engine heating system to help starting in cold weather?

Tks,
