What Happens When Your Diesel Engine Gels And How to Fix it! 6.9 IDI Cold Start!

I started filming a cold start video only to find out that my 1985 f250 Diesel was all gelled up, guess we will have to remedy that. We've had a pretty mild winter up until December, I've been able to get away without adding anti gel to my fuel tank up until now, I guess today is the turning point!

Would have loved to see the starting attempts from inside/side view 😎

Just build a fire under it, like they do in Soviet Russia. ;D
Got this in my recommendations, seems the algorithm picked you up!

[@highostablegarage]

I've seen videos of the old soviet Antarctic explorer vehicles having to start with fires under them, the diesel was so cold they could cut it with a saw haha. And as for the algorithm, lets hope it keeps on giving xD
