FASS Fuel Pump/Filter Heater?
Hey, i was just wondering if theres any kind of a fuel heater you can get for the FASS systems since i thought i read something about one somewhere in the instructions. It was in the 30s this morning and i have my fuel line run from the FASS pump directly to the VP bypassing stock fuel filter canister with heater and stuff. Truck was harder to start than normal so im just curious about some kind of a heater i thought i read about for FASS systems.

So you have the full Fass pump and filters then
If so then all ya need to do is plumb the glycol into the fuel heater provided |
from their website man
The FASS System Features: Fuel Pump 10-Micron Filtration Water Separator Includes Fuel Heater |
Im no expert here - but you probably should have left the factor fuel filter housing in place.
Whit, on a cold start....when the glycol is cold - how does the FASS heat the fuel? |

another good point Doc...............a feller could use the OEM filter housing in service with the heater intact to do this job............ Thats what I did course I need it for filtration too

that would work but IMHO the heater there in an empty canister would just be a waste since there in no filter there.....................normally with the filter in place that where you would find any gelling so the heater makes sense then.
my bottom line is dont worry bout no heater anywhere just keep up yer additives while considering yer current temps..........................once the truck starts the return fuel will heat the fuel just fine and pretty quick too some time in the winter after a half hour drive reach under there and feel the temp of yer tank................you will be surprised |
just keep a bottle of Rescue 911 on hand in case.

lol ok guys, just keeping all my ducks in a row and hitting it before it gets any colder
Also, how would i go about re-plumbing the fuel line into the stock fuel filter canister. I still have everything there and in tact, just unhooked |
