I cannot remember these fuse things.
I'm pretty sure thats the fuel bowl heater fuse.
I get 18 and 22 confused sometimes.

Somebody else will chime in soon.

It is the fuel filter heater. Either unplug it and forget it or get a replacement. Dorman I think makes one for a SD for we can use I think. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Sd is super duty.

Just unplug the it on the side of the bowl and forget about it so she doesn't have any more issues.

Yep, it will cause it to shut off as that fuse runs the pcm (computer) too.

You bet. Just unplug it like Talyn said, it's not really needed. Unless you live in alaska..
