Truck wont start when cold after overhaul

Finally got it running about 4 yesterday idk weather it was ice in the lines or not it ran rough...very rough for about an hour or so it'd run about 700 and drop to about 4 or 300 and come back to life did that for about 45 minutes and then smoothed out had. I'm wondering if ice wasn't possibly the culprit as wore out stated. I run half tanks all the time so it's a good possibility with the condensation I suppose. Be the last time I believe a bottle of additive that says removes water from fuel. Might just finally be time to bite the bullet and not shut the trucks off for the next couple months.

It started today without a hitch but it's also 33 right now I'll be #### happy when winter is over. Thanks for the help everyone be safe out there.

 

That's why dragging the extra 1000lbs of fuel just doesn't make sense I need to get a shut off valve for the pass tank and plumb it into the return line to shut that tank off completely just haven't got around to it.

Kinda makes a guy miss the single draw single return systems, air wipers, etc from the old days. I didn't have the problem as much last year because I knew what was going on and I was just pulling a box, now it's grain mixed with a box deal so I can't just fill the truck and go still be dragging 200+ gallons and the extra weight just ain't worth the headache after everybody beat the rates down.

 

I've heard of guys doing that just never knew how much to add I'd imagine it can't be any worse than a gallon or 2 of unleaded in each tank which I've had to do before. I dumped a bottle of air line antifreeze in them last year as it started to gel going down the road.

I'll keep that in mind thanks for the advise it seems as though it's going to be a very long winter
