ok so i changed my filter and added that fuel stuff to my tank... then got a jerry can and put some diesel in that with some of that fuel conditioner and filled my fuel filter.... now i'll let it sit for a bit to help it do its thing... but if it dosen't start after this does it mean its a pump of some sort? or that the lines are just really frozen?

good going!!!!!!!!....make sure you get at least a fuel p. guage on it soon

by the way the fuel dose not really freez.....it just carries enough parifin that it plugs the filter when the temp drops.......so in the cold times we all have to be a little more filter consious.---hope that helps
