Thanks guys.

Okay, no HEET!

I'll let it sit in the garage awhile longer and go get some Diesel 911. I rember seeing it last week when I was at the store.

D1 or D2? Well in MN they preblend and all pumps sell the same blends. It is supposedly mixed down to the lowest seasonal expected temps. I always buy from the same place because it is more high volume and they don't look at me funny when I say 'diesel on pump 19' instead of gas.

Wow -10F without plugging in? Man, that is a good engine! I have started mine down to about 10F without being plugged in.


Quick question about the glowplugs.
The light comes on right now. Last night when I was trying to start I was doing 2,3, and 4 cycles before starting. The light stopped coming on. Don't know if it just wasn't cycling or if something burned out but the light comes on now. Does that mean they are still good? I don't have my multimeter on me as I'm parked about 15 miles away from my house to check them.

Seems like the consensus is to just let it warm up. I'll walk across the street to Wal-Mart (I know, I know, but the car won't drive and they are the closest) and get some fuel additives to try and ungel it (if it is gelled).

Thanks. If anyone else has suggestions keep em comin'. I'll update. Going to go downstairs and try again!
