But Casey, you are running a newer model than Gump. Her fuel just gels right up and will not flow at temps below 37*F. All that old glow plug system does is slightly warm the pre-chamber and then the fuel gets stuck in the filters or oozes through the lines under the car. Eight feet of thin, uninsulated tin pipe sucks calories right out.

The ED on the other hand has no major issue with the fuel, other than having it eat all the rubber bits to the tune of $1800 for replacing IP seals and fuel hoses over a six month period. Now SWMBA will only run at B50 or less

Advise that you do no more than B50 once it gets below 40* F, but the
#2 is cut with solvents to allow it to flow at lower temps from
October to April in the lower PS.  Upper elevations may continue to
use thinned fuel until late May if using the mountain passes.
