Thanks everyone for the replies. The answers are very helpful.
There was some confusion as to the application. I should have been more specific.
Even though the question could apply to different trucks, my question was concerning pickup truck size diesels. I have a 96 Powerstroke.
It appears that many of the answers that were given, can apply to many different size diesel trucks.
Original question:
Why do diesel owners keep their trucks running when stopping for several minutes or longer??
If there are any other answers regarding the idling of PICKUP size diesels, please add them to the group.
Thank you all again for your replies.
Now I can answer the persons question and give credit to this forum.
