Diesel Fuel Heater

This option is used to heat the fuel during low temperature operation, below 20°F (-5°C). This prevents wax crystals from building up and blocking the fuel filters. The heater is located along the right side of the intake manifold and uses a resistance wire spiralled around the fuel line.
