Sounds like a fueling problem to me, not sure though.

How cold is it at your house, and when's the last time you replaced the fuel filter?

May not have been a good idea to do the fuel heater delete if you live in a cold weather area.

The fuel heater does nothing except leak. If you look at your motor there is about 5 feet of fuel line after the heater that is full of fuel and is not heated it makes no sense to have a fuel heater

The intake keeps that heated, supposedly, after the engine gets hot. Keeps the fuel stable.
---AutoMerged DoublePost--- If you replace the o-ring above the fuel heater, it does not leak, most of the time. |

- The warm fuel returning from the injection pump and injectors, flows back to the tank and warms the fuel in the pick-up reservoir (in the tank). :pca1: . |
