kinda/sorta but no, both gas and diesel's need to be at hot
temps. to run properly. thats also why you trick the computer
w/ a 10F lower T-Stat to have better performance.
next, a "winter front" stops the cold air from "super cooling"
the exterior of the eng. or radiator which also cools the eng.
but in a bad way.
the "fan" really doesnt even work in cold temps and having
the heater on actually bypasses most of the radiator cooling
in the winter and keeps the engine at proper temp..
sooooo....
the winter front works on all cars/trucks!
