The fuel is supposed to be heated. Partially for easier injection and partially so some can be sent back to the tank to keep it from getting to cold.

Exactly. That's the reason I suggested that whunter look into some sort of heating element for the tank, something that would get it just warm enough without the risk of fire. It wouldn't do any good to have insulated lines if the fuel in the tank was too cold to get through them in the first place. In fact the insulated lines would keep the fuel at about the same temperature as the fuel in the tank. It wouldn't be until the fuel got into the engine compartment that it would get a chance to warm up.
