If you run #1, there is no need for a fuel heater tho.


I have a transfer tank. I mix my own. We have places that sell both.
I would still use a fuel heater.

Back again, I installed a fuel pressure gauge on the clean side of the baldwin 1259 ( 10 micron) and checked, it had 14 psi!!! I suspected it had no volume though. I removed the lift pump and sure enough the screen had a bunch of brown goop on it brakelened it and reinstalled and now hav 18-20 psi and able to hit 30lbs of boost for long periods! Thanks for the help and suggestions! My veggie tank heats up awesome! It started last night at 25-30 deg with no preheat on veggie with no issues!
