Why are those morons heating the fuel?

Diesel gets not frozen but flaky from -23 C, cause it takes up to 8% humidity from the environment. Remember German tanks in Russian winter. Modern cars have heated diesel filters at their tanks. But in Endonesia you have not this temperatures.

We are talking about that truck, normally you heat the engine block up to make the oil liquid again, if you heat the fuel tank there is a good chance that your gonna kill yourself.

Oil has no freeze point, it has a pourpoint if the parrafin was not raffined well it is -15 C, if parrafin was well eliminated modern oils can lubricate up to -40 C.
Assume our truckers use sometimes "taxfree" bad quality diesel.

I didnt say freeze, it gets too thick in minus temparatures, also the modern oils like 5W-30 can do their job well in -20 but not the oil they have put in this ancient truck thats for sure, also assume that the last oil change is mostly long time ago in those old trucks.

I know buddy, that's the reason why in the 90's winter climate tests between Leopard, Abrams and Leclerc for Turkish tank tender were made in Sarikamis.
Guess, which tank started without problems at emergency start trials ?
