Introduction
The problem that is identified below does not have a known permanent solution. Until a permanent solution is known, use the solution that is identified below.Problem
The following article has the proper guidelines for starting Caterpillar Engines in temperatures 9 °C (48 °F) to −40 °C (−40 °F). Please follow the instructions below if your engine is experiencing cold starting problems.Solution
Starting The Engine in Cold Temperatures
Make sure that the air inlet heater is turned on. Also make sure that the continuous flow ether is turned on. Use an electronic technician to make sure that both the air inlet heater and the continuous flow ether are turned on. Consult your local Caterpillar Dealer for more information.
Make sure that the ether bottle has enough ether in order to help start the engine. The ether bottle can be checked by removing the ether bottle and shaking the ether bottle. Replace the ether bottle if the bottle is empty.
Install the correct lubricant in each compartment before the engine is exposed to cold weather. See the chart below for the availability of oil for either Caterpillar or other commercial lubricants.

Temperature Range for Starting the Engine 9 °C (48 °F) to −9.5 °C (15 °F)Caterpillar Engines will not require any starting aid in this temperature range of altitudes less than 460 m (1509 ft). A starting aid might also be necessary for Caterpillar Engines in this temperature range of altitudes greater than 460 m (1509 ft).
