That was an OUTSTANDING writeup!!!

Your going to have some trouble in the morning starting 'er up if you don't have the truck plugged in. It was like 16 degrees here the other day and I was getting off a Mid-Watch. It took me 3 trys to get it started but once I started it, it ran rough for about 3 mins....then it was about perfect.

If your fuel is jelled, about the only thing you can do is get the fuel warm. There was one post on here yesterday I think about the fuel jelling. If you want to get inventive, you could use a Nitrous Bottle warmer and wrap it around the tank. That way you can warm the fuel off of the battery. I haven't done it but it's a logical fix.
