Warm up time on diesel engins in cold weather?

No matter how long you leave a diesel engine idling to warm up, it wont, you are just wasting fuel and in the long run damaging the engine. Rather driver off at a low speed, changing gear before the turbo can startup, this will give you the fastest warm-up time. If you drive at a speed where the turbo is switched on, the cold air from the intercooler will flow into the motor and increase the time the motor takes to warm-up. Hope this helps.

Why would a 2005 6.0 diesel smoke when cold?

That is normal for a diesel engine. The temperature of the cylinders is not quite hot enough for complete burn. The issue goes away normally, in a few minutes. You will also smell a very rich diesel fuel smell in the air. The turbo is also fairly fragile at this time, so also it to idle for a little bit and get the oil warm.


Does cold diesel make your car go better?

No, never put diesel in a gasoline engine it will foul up the sparkplugs in your engine, clog it up, and make it smoke alot. Cold Diesel in a diesel engine isn't too good either because when diesel gets cold it gels up, that is why most diesel engines have a built in heater to warm up the engine and fuel before starting. Hope this helps


What does plugging in a F250 do?

Most diesel engines have a block heater that heats the engine coolant so that the whole engine is warm to make it easier to start on cold mornings because a diesel uses compression heat to ignite the diesel fuel.
