Pre heater? Is this something that warms up the car before you get in it? If it's diesel, it will.

If it's a unit that heats up the inside of the car, it's like the night heaters in wagons. Basically they have a glowplug in the unit that heats up diesel and a fan to disperse the heat around the cabin. At this time of year, they smoke a hell of a lot. There's also usually a kind of dieselly smell to it as well.
