I don't think "... let it run for a few days while the storm does its thing." is a good idea! Idling diesels for a long time (several days) is not a good way to warm the up. Is this an air cooled diesel?Is there anyway you can warm it up before you attempt to start it with external heat (torpedo heater, heat lamp, milkhouse heater, etc)?
