That's not the issue here. If it were gelled fuel, the problem would
not go away so quickly after such a short time. I'm wondering if this
is more like delivery valve seals....

Seems like I heard that 20F is when diesel begins to gell. May depend
on winter or summer fuel.

This morning was the coldest so far that I have started the SDL at
about 20F. I have to glow for about 20-30 seconds to get a smooth
idle (no missing) right after start. Once the oil pressure pegs out,
I put the car in gear and go. But "go" is really creeping forward at
an idle with the throttle to the floor. After about 20-30 seconds of
this, it will suddenly have normal SDL acceleration. What is the
issue here? TIA all,
