Glad to hear you are running. Depending on where you were getting your fuel for your JD traditionally it would be #2 heating oil that's been dyed red vs your low sulfur blends for OTR trucks at least where I've grown up.
Not getting a winter blend diesel was certainly not helping your situation.
I groomed at ski resorts for 13 years and I found that best fleet of cats had oil heater, coolant heater, hydraulic heater and fuel heater on top of intake air heater. Would always start no matter how cold. Conversely, I've had cats with just a coolant heater that took ALL day to start when it got really cold.
