E-fuel heater

Hey guys,

I have the Stanadyne filter with the heater that slides in the top for my e-fuel.

How did you guys wire up the heater? I have everything else figured out, but that.
I'm assuming it should get it's own relay?
What turns on the relay? Should I pull 12V from the original fuel bowl heater wire, just like I will for the relay for the pump?
What size fuse should I use for the heater. It is a 100 watt heater I think.

Anywhere online to buy those connectors that fit inside the factory fuse panel for the relays and a crimper for them? I don't even know what they are called to even start a search, haha.

Thanks.

The air bag spot is open in the fuse pannel under the dash as well.

Just throwing that in there.
I have my gauges wired though that.

OK, thanks. I'll keep that in mind.

Does the factory fuel bowl heater always turn on, even in the summer?

What would be a good fuse to run the heater off?

So is it 100watts divided by 12volts to get amps???

100/12=8.3333333 amps?
