This is one of the really good features of the old diesels. You can glow up to 2 minutes with the old Bosch " candle wire" injectors or the Beru "bird cage" injectors.
It went below zero last night so I decided to plug in the block heater. I'll also give the battery a little zip this morning before I start the 240D. This year in the summer, the 190D (and the "hybrid" 1940 170 I'm making into a diesel) will get block heaters, assuming I can find something that fits, which I believe I can.
