We moved from Florida to NE Washington state and this is my first REAL winter. I own a '07 Chevy 2500 silverado diesel truck. As hubby recently passed away, I'm trying to learn whatever I can about it...especially what I need to do in cold weather. I've been unable to find the diesel supplement but have requested another.
Question: When do I plug in the cord. I'm retired and don't use the truck everyday. Yet, when I want to use it, it's often a spur of the moment thing. Do I need to plug it in 4 hours before using? Would it be a problem if I just left it plugged in for days at a time? Before reading the owner's manual, I hadn't even realized that I was supposed to plug it in and I've been using it with no starting problems. Might this have hurt the engine??
Appreciate any information and suggestions. Thanks!
Sandy
