Hello everyone.
I live in Ohio, and last year, it was an extreemly cold winter for us. We had a few weeks straight that the real temp never went over 10F, wind chill was always -10F or lower. I know that some people are use to colder than that, but here we are not, and I have never owned a diesel in the winter.
I did not own my Jetta last year, but my girlfriend did. She did not drive it all winter, so I'm not sure how it will fair. I have bought a Frostheater, and will be installing it this week.
I will be running the frostheater before work. My concern is that while I am at work for 8 hours, how cold will my engine get? There is no where for me to plug it in while I am at work. Is there something I can do to help hold in the heat for those 8 hours, or am I just S.O.L?
