Possible tip from Mercedes owner newsletter- for diesel start in winter use a hair drier in air intake. Insert 15 minutes to 1/2 hour before attempting to start engine, turn on high heat to warm air in manifold and some warming of head. IHC 350D has heat plug in manifold- 1 minute of heat before attempting to start in spring/fall, 2 minutes in winter, about 30 seconds needed even in summer. Hot air helps start JD combine- sister wondered where hair drier disappeared. RN.
