Message: [QUOTE="T_W6.7, post: 1432232, member: 24007"] someone will probably correct me, but that seems to be the old way of thinking for owning a diesel, these newer ones don't need to be idled near as long before driven and you can certainly shut them off when you're going in somewhere. That is if ambient air temps are warm, when it's cold outside letting them idle isn't terrible other than you do risk potential cylinder wash down from fuel that isn't burned. To answer your high engine hours/high idle hours question, yes the emissions stuff is the reason high idle hours are bad, getting rid of the stuff would definitely help that situation out in the future, but these trucks have a lot of blow by and combine that with Exhaust Gas Recirculation soot then you have a heck of a mess in you intake/intake manifold.
