I wouldn't be punchin' the pump like that for about 15 minutes... that crankcase oil is cold and stiff. (Of course that's just "old timer talk" and we don't do it that way nowadays.):D

If I know I'm going to use a tractor tomorrow and it's freezing outside, I'll plug the block heater in the night before. Electricity is cheaper than engines. That's just me though.
