We have had one of the coldest winters in a while, I am 3 years now with out the fuel bowl heater with no issue in the fuel filter area. But lets not talk about the tank...

Didn't work on the truck today. I have a MAC code reader. It basically reads and shows the codes and clears the codes. Haven't had to use it much over the years. I'll disconnect the fuel heater bowl tomorrow and replace fuse. Hope that will be the end of it. Thanks Again

Yes, lesson learned...

I needed more that a "little" though...

Friday got the fuel bowl heater disconnected. Replaced the fuse. Truck started up and idled it in the driveway for 20 minutes. Shut down. Later in the day I started the truck and took it for a 5 minute drive..no problems. Hopefully now the problem has been fixed.
Thanks again for all the comments and help.
Jeff
