Any chance you can bring it in the shop and heat it up?

Yeah, just had it running the other day moving ledge, was running low on fuel when I shut it off.  Added 5 gallons this morning, started up, set it to idle and went in to get some cold weather gear on. Came out and it was off, it sputtered like it was trying to start, killed.the battery, threw it on the charger and went and got some diesel 911. Now it doesn't even sputter. Suppose to be warmer tomorrow but I'm gonna tarp it and put the heat to it.

Had water in my sediment bowl on my big diesel last year...froze and busted...nice...what a pain that job was.  Never anticipated that happening to me...always use good fuel, keep the tank pretty full and put the additive in the tank.  Happened in February and my fingers froze replacing the bowl and bleeding the lines. 

I have had good luck with putting in the Diesel Rescue additive on Iced Lines...I was warned to only put in the amount the bottle says to put in.

You gas or Diesel?

Good Luck

I know mine does...hard to miss mine, it's right by the fuel filter forward of the cowl...then again it's a '89 vintage.
