Re: [diesel_mercedes] Cold Weather

 

Its been much colder than that here. Close to zero, getting colder by Friday. Major reason I drive Subaru in winter, also snow and ice. My Kubota generator wont start now, and yes I am needing valve adjustment. Heading off to Sacramento to see my 98 yo mom who recently broke her hip. Max

It was 38* here last night .

I hope all here have done a routine valve adjustment , intake fuel screen replacement and added some White Bottle Diesel Kleen to their fuel to ensure easier starting this , the supposedly coldern'ell El Nino Winter .

The routine valve adjustment is probably the single most important thing you can do to facilitate cold weather starting .

Also , following the Mercedes cold weather starting drill as it really does work , I used it on my old '78 NA Diesel Coupe when it's engine was totally worn out as  it was my daily driver at the time and I leave for work well before sunup every day .

2016 will be the year of the monkey , I hope everyone has a good one .
