Keeping Diesel Engine Warm
My dodge dually Cummins engine is very hard to start when cold. At home or camping with hookups I can plug in the block heater but what can be done when boondocking.

Its 39 degrees at my house right now. I had to move my truck so that I could stack some firewood in the carport for later in the week. Hopped in, turned the key and it started right up. 40 degrees does not require anything extra for a Cummins. I don't think anything is required until 0 if I remember correctly.
OP, I think its either your batteries or possibly the oiled air filter causing issues downstream. You should fire up immediately at those temps.
