OK, replaceing the GPs cured the no start issue, but tightening the fuel filter didn't resolve the idle problem. Didn't have time to adjust the damper screw, little lady had to leave for work. I'll try that later today and see if it'll idle in the morning. Thanks for all of the suggestions, keep them coming.

idle

i must not be fussy enuf because i dont expect any diesel to start and idle like a gasser when the temps get to the teens I have or had most every diesel known to man in cars trucks boats gen sets bulldozers cranes etc i start em run the idle up 2 min later they are running smooth Except when it was below zero and we had to put the torch on the oil pan of the bulldozer
My significant other is a lot of work too her having to unplug the block heater causes me pain
