the best way to make sure your diesel starts in extreme cold is purchase a engine block heater unit. there are varietys the best i like are the ones that replace a freeze plug with a heater element. you rig a extension cord through your grill and plug it in to a normal 110 volt receptical starts right up any temp make sure your fuel is winterized or it will gel up. once running some people block flow of air to radiator( cold days only)

Does cold diesel make your car go better?
No, never put diesel in a gasoline engine it will foul up the sparkplugs in your engine, clog it up, and make it smoke alot.
