When I had my engine rebuilt I also replaced my old Racor 900FG fuel filter/water separator with a 900FH, not just because the FG's bowl was almost opaque and its Water-In-Fuel probe was broken, but also because the FH has connections for a water heater plate that I bought separately. I have it powered by the same 60A feed that will also power my soon-to-be second radiator's four electric fans and coolant booster pump - the feed's Blue Sea switch can be On for either the fuel heater or the second radiator, but obviously not both at the same time. Do I plan on being somewhere so cold I need a fuel heater: heck no, but sometimes things don't go to plan, so I'd rather be safe than sorry. Or as the Scouts say, Be Prepared. I also installed a block heater in the engine, again "Just In Case"...
