The first thing to do is switch oil to a 5W-40 full synthetic oil. You will be amazed at how much difference this will make. Does not guarantee it will start as everything else must be up to snuff, but every little bit helps.
Would you suggest this oil for a 440b JD engine as well?

Gary C, what type of 5-40 synthetic are you running. I run that in a TDI Volkswagon Jetta and it does spin over good in the cold. I am using Rotella T-6 in the Jetta. That would be a 60$ oil change in the Detroit. How often do you change that out during the winter.
