2007 Gelling

I'm gelling up I had a full tank of Diesel I first dumped a think of Anti gel that didn't work so I dumped the 911 crap that didn't work. I have it parked in a heated garage now. The engine light is on. Is there anything I need to do tomm morning? Will the engine light be off? I heard the fuel filter needs changed is that true?

Thanks

I'd wait on the filter change and see how the truck runs tomarow. If it still isn't 100%, then change the fuel filters, yeah filters, I'd change them both.

if you truely have a gelling problem you will have parafin buildup in your filters. change them both. You will see it on the one under the hood.

Does the engine light usually come on with the engine light?

No, you just lose power. If it is really freezing up hard it won't run at all.
