Old 240D seems to run so much better in mild weather, I wonder if it makes any sense to rig something up to draw warm air into the intake manifold??
Anybody ever try something like this?

a warm air intake on a diesel will help it in the cold air -- period -- its a play and fuel ecom ( IT will go up ) -- only in a racing deal do you want cold air for more power -- pre heating the fuel will also help as big a deal as warm air into manifold -- ALASKA will teach you things that the 50 other states have no idea about -- jz
