    Does it have glow plugs? That should help for down to -5 or 10C. Below that temp you should have either a block heater or a circulating heater that is in line with your rad hose. By the way what kind of work are doing in that cold of weather anyway?

    I didn't know how cold they could go till they were tempermental, everything else i have came with an engine block heater or recirt. heater. I'll be using it all through the winter and didn't want any issues will all the work. I have about 50 sewer tap ins to do comming up.
