    Temps will drop drastically tomorrow here-What type of engine heater do you use ?

    I will add that if that is summer blend then at -20 below in his freezer. Cloud point for winter # 2 is around 30 degrees with a gel of around 12 to 15 degrees. Winter # 1 has a cloud temp of -40. The CFPP is what you really want to be concerned with. If you are in sub zero and running #2...

    911 did what it was designed to do. It will not keep fuel from gelling from temp. The bottle says just that, but it will ungel the fuel as its designed to do. Such as a frozen fuel filter, remove and add 911 then reinstall. It does get it flowing again. This is for people who put the wrong...

    At night or non driving times it was left idling. 10hours of driving or so. 14hrs of low or high idle.

    If you are going into extreme cold then the best method is to leave the truck running. Mine would run for 2 or 3 weeks straight at times. Or keep some of the starter logs handy in case you have to build a fire under the truck. Some of us have had to do that a bunch. A good fuel system in...

    Temps will drop drastically tomorrow here-What type of engine heater do you use ?

    You do not need to leave it plugged in all the time. Most of us didnt want the power meter to spin like a top at 1000watts pulling power like crazy. You use a timer and the block heater comes on 2 hours before you intend to start your vehicle. You apparently do not use your vehicle at...

    It allows for the cab to defrost quicker and heats the interior on sunny days especially with the giant windshield. Plus it helps with warmups. If you are trying to run a truck and warm it up but its facing north with a 20mph wind it will never get warm. Southern winds always warmer and its...

    Fuel fired coolant heaters is what the military uses. Also always park your truck facing the south if possible. Never park it facing north.
