RE: Re: RE: FUEL GELLING IN THE COLD?? Been meaning to thank you all for the advice on testing the glowplugs - I have always hated electricity - bodywork is my forte. I reluctantly put on ten layers and and braved the blizzard to change the fuel filter, got out the meter and managed to figure...

You know - I am mostly still suspicious of the fuel...see I left Saturday morning, and the weather was cold - and she started w/no problems...then I drove it til she was low on gas and filled up at the Meijers station in Plainwell (W-MI) and it hasn't been right since. I've heard that other...
