What temp idle to prevent gelling?

Anything below 9.6 v is considered fully discharged.

 

All diesel fuel sold now in US or Canada is ULSD.You can't get LSD anymore.Northern areas have #1 which is kerosene blended into the #2 at the refinery depending on expected temperatures in the region.Yes straight #2 will gel around freezing.That's why during the winter when running from south to north don't put on much fuel in warm areas and add more as yuo go north into cold areas.

 

If you have the bunk heater on hi it will kill your batteries faster and have a good chance of not starting in morning. You can go about 8hours on hi speed on bunk heater before batteries take it. And when u wake up and try to start that cold engine you may not have the juice to start.

My truck has a low voltage warning and shuts off accessories when voltage drops. Bunk heater was off when I woke up, so I know it works... But, something, somewhere drained my batteries. How long do truck batteries last before they need to be replaced?

Thinking about it, I do have some sort of electrical problem. Occasionally, my fuel gauge will go haywire, and this evening, all my gauges went black for about an hour and a half for some reason...

 

No had feelings killer, been a long day.

 

Been a long day for me as well. I had 3 days off work. Needless to say I'm bored out of my mind as this just happend to fall this way on the schedule. You can only play FSX for so long before you get tired of it. LOL

 

FSX? Never heard of such an animal. I just shut down for a 34 in Montana, gunna be a long and cold day and a half.

I don't drive OTR. I'm at a local gig, so I'm at home during my time off.

 

I see! My Dad was into building puters back in the day, early 90's. I remember playin Microsoft flight sim on DOS!

 

Yup. Thats when I started getting into it. Amazing how much that game has changed over the years. And don't even get me started on the addons.


Wait a minute...... What was this thread about again? Opps.... LMAO
