Old diesels don't like the cold for sure. I remember how hard it was getting old buses to start in the cold. They had hundreds of thousands of miles on them also.
And now today, most bussed get retired before they hit 100K miles due to the endless emission system component failures making them too costly and unreliable for their applications.

Over the past 15 years , I have found that diesel engines are the way to go, but you have a few things to remember, one of those things , is to plug in the engine warmer any time it is going to drop to a temp that makes YOUR engine hard to start, The other thing involved in a cold start issue , is to NOT rev the engine while it is cold, this does more damage than most other abusive habits, let it run and warm up some, one last thing involved in a cold start, only use starting fluid as a LAST resort, that stuff can send engine parts to the county next to you, if it wont start after you plug it in, get it checked out, If a person treats his or her diesel engine right, It will be there for you for a lot longer time than any gas engine
@@adambryant2434 Lots of Diesel engines are notorious for lasting a million plus miles, Gas engines mostly go out around 300,000 and those are the well made ones many others blow up way before 200,000 and the new cars are now using really thin oils which doesent even make them last 100,000....

These Cold Starts are pretty hard to listen to now... Used to be cool, but now I just Cringe ... I plug my Detroit Diesel in for 3 hours and she starts up like she is warm and has been running .. Some white smoke for a couple minutes and she is good to go ... These Cold Cold starts can not possibly be good for any part of the Engine where Friction is building up , if you want them to last.
Love detritus! Should crank at full throttle when she fires let off the gas to idle and let her warm up. All older diesels should be started that way. Nice truck!
It's AT full throttle when cranking. When below minimum idle speed the governor pulls the rack to full fuel until the engine is at or above idle speed setting and then it pulls the rack back to whatever position it needs to maintain idle. No need for pedal input, it won't do anything.

Better is fast idle for about 5 minutes. 40w oil at that temp won't flow well, and the upper cylinders are choked. Give the oil pump a little help and let the cylinders expand a bit before just taking off.
