What are you talking about?

He is talking to diesel owners fuel gelling up in the cool temps, that’s why they have heat plugs and block heaters

Block heaters don't prevent fuel gelling.
You can have it all warmed up and drive along the interstate and have that problem.

Dang it, good thing I wasn't drinking my diet coke when I saw this - I'd be snorting coke OUT my nose.

I have an idea - give it orange accents and it'll be ok.

Funny have had diesels my whole life swear by Cummins, never had a gel issue once it was plugged in and cycled the plugs, been through many of cold snaps in the winter just fine, never has it gelled after truck has been running and warm, usually do t plug in unless it’s going negative

Ever have one that needed DEF? Big difference between new and old diesels.. Also your climates rather mild in ny..
Gotta keep the def warm too, and add fuel additive.. but wait there more! then there's the water separator and the fuel filter that has to be changed every oct/November, which is no guarantee as thats's where the the gel's gonna happen. Shit show of maintenance.. to be able to tow... oh never mind..

Last diesel I had you could add a gallon of regular gas to a tank full of fuel to help keep it flowing in winter.
