Am wondering how critical this element is? I am figuring that it is more critical in colder climates but would like everyone elses take on it? Does anyone know what the resistance should be on the element when testing?
I have a 2003 7.3 PS and woke up to below zero temps this morn and the truck fired up right away and then a few moments later it acted as though it was struggling to run and would not take an acceleration with out dying and have dificulty starting again. The temps did warm up into the lower 20's and the truck would start and run fine as I could tell.
So I am left to believe that the fuel pump appears to work fine so is the problem with the fuel going to the injectors at a cold temp?
Anyone had this problem? I have 2000 7.3 and have never had this problem?
