Unit make/model?

Vehicle make/model/yr/trim package/doors?

If it is for gas only, you can NOT use it on desiel bc you have to wait out for the ignition priming, aka "desiel light timer."

Can't answer until we know make/model/year etc. BUT some vehicles use an extra cold weather priming circuit at ignition, it shows up with the starter as a "second starter" wire.

In the programming options, you mean to tell me you CANNOT adjust the runtime at all?

And I'll beat eveyone to it..... WHAT MODEL AUTOSTART?

Don't seem to be able to do that in cold mode, look like you have no choice. In diesel mode you would have a predetermined time delay start.
