The system also includes a fuel heater
element, thermostatic switch and
wiring harness.
Replace the element as follows:
1. Shut down the engine and allow
it to cool.
2. With the engine at ambient
temperature and cool to the touch,
place a suitable container under
the filter.

Close the drain valve. The fuel
may be returned to the tank.
