I have used diesel kleen in the white bottle when it gets cold. And plug your truck up. Thats the best thing I think.

What blend of Bio-D are you using? The best reccomendation for cold climates is to use more diesel and less bio. If your using B100 (100% bio) then you should cut it back to B10 or B20 and it should be fine.

Thanks, I dropped down to about B50 and things are running fine, starting fine.
