Poll on cold engine start (surging)

Greeting All,

Rick might be onto something here and I thought I'd just see what the concensus is on this. Seems like there are several folks on this post wondering why their diesels are surging in the morning on a cold start I assume (no block heater running) We are trying to narrow this down, for lack of better things to do in cold weather I guess. It has been mentioned that perhaps the Russian cude oil is to blame for this happening. At any rate I am just trying to collect data for those of us that are perhaps in 30-20 Degree F weather in the morning during our first starts of the day. Any additional info you can add would be helpful, otherwise please pick what best describes your first morning start.

Charles
