I want to make sure I understand this, I have seen it posted on here before; put a heat gun in the manifold. Are you saying to disconnect the pipe or hose running from the air cleaner to the manifold and put the heat gun directly into the manifold? OR, are you saying to take the precleaner off and put the heat gun in the precleaner pipe? The first option I would be concerned about getting the connections back on tight with no air leaks, the 2nd option, you would have to get the air filter warmed up before any heat gets to the manifold. What am I missing here? You know that it's diesel and they don't like cold starts, so a good block heater is standard equipment for any diesel that is going to be used in cold weather. I think I would get some charcoal and build a fire under it for a couple of hours to warm it up before I would mess around trying to disconnect the intake system. NO electricity? Hook the block heater to a generator fer a hour or 2 and then start it up. I use a diesel to plow the driveway in winter, if they are calling for a big snow, I plug it in before I leave for work or else the night before the storm hits. Be prepared. Chris
