Winter versus Summer Diesel Fuel
Compared to spark-ignition fuel system car operation, where lack of adherence to seasonal gasoline quality requirement changes causes very rare operability issues, Diesel fuel propelled vehicles are at the very opposite end of the scale. While for a gasoline car the only seasonal, easy-to-avoid threat is usage of high vapor pressure winter grades of gasoline in really hot summer that can impair the fuel delivery from a tank to an engine due to fuel vapor cushion creation, in case of Diesel fuel with poor low temperature properties in a truck tank in cold winter surely prevents from any further voyage.
