I'VE BEEN IN THE EXCAVATING BUSINESS FOR MANY YEARS AND NEVER HAD ANYTHING BUT DIESEL POWERED LOADERS, EXCAVATORS, DOZERS, ETC. MAKES NO SENSE TO PAY THE FEDS TAX, WICH YOUI ARE LEGALLY EXEMPT FROM. ALL DIESEL ENGINES "SMOKE" AT START UP. THEY WORK OFF COMPRESSION, WHEN THAY ARE COLD, THEY ARE BLOWING UNBURNED FUEL. THE WORST THING YOU CAN DO TO ANY ENGINE, ESPECIALLY DIESELS, IS TO WORK THEM WITHOUT WARM UP. YOU PUT 40% OF WEAR ON THE ENGINE AT START UP. THAT'S WHY WE USE ENGINE PRE OILERS AND HEATERS ON THE BIG STUFF, EVEN IN SUMMER TIME. IF YOU ARE IN A COLD CLIMATE, YOUR FUEL DEALER WILL MIX AN ADDITIVE (USUALLY #1) WITHOUT YOU SAYING ANYTHING. IF YOU BUY AT A GAS STATION, MAKE SURE IT'S ONE THAT SELLS A GOOD AMOUNT OF DIESEL. BEST TO YOU, LARRY
