Diesel Question

Wind chill doesn’t affect it. Only the ambient temperature.

I just figured the wind whipping under the truck would cool the lines. Either way, she froze up. Plugged in for a few hours and started up. Left it plugged in last night and it fired right up this morning and I drove the 45 miles to the fire station. Dash thermometer said -5

Mine wouldn’t start when I tried to leave the station yesterday, fuel was felled up. Never had that issue before. I put a heater up under the engine for about 30 minutes and it cranked right up.

Yeah, several guys at the firehouse with diesels were stuck. Pulled them in the bay with heaters and plugged up. Got them all running

It will ungel its self and return to normal once it warms up wont it? My truck has been parked outside a few days and I dont plan on starting it until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest
