Do they use a small gas engine to fire up the diesels?

  Most of the engines have block heaters and oil heaters which are used too bring things up to temperature before starting.

  Its only job in life is to not fall into holes. So, yes, its supposed to do that. However, the operator may not have been doing what he/she should have been.
