Here in NE Wisconsin, I just make sure that any fuel purchased from November to April is winterized. Use a DIESEL FUEL anti-gel additive if you suspect the fuel quality.
Plugging in your block heater helps, but anything more than 4 hours is wasting electricity. If you need to leave at 8AM have the heater set up on a timer to start at 4AM.
Browse the 7.3L PSD engine forum for other helpful tips.
