Fuel Primer issues

Alright, before you all start laughing and all... I have a 1985 Ford Tempo with a 2.0L diesel engine, a very unique car, a beautifal thing. Now, to the point of this forum

Last week on the weekend, I got the car back from the shop after spending $800 for a new starter and gloplugs + installation. So electrically its been working fine, but I have been having to use the fuel primer to pump the fuel in due to me living in a northern part of Canada where its not exactly scorching hot here, its a little chilly at most parts, freezing for some. On Sunday night of last weekend, I was not able to start my vehicle, not even the fuel primer would work, I figured the fuel filter/water seperater froze, so I replaced it with the new one I had in my trunk. 4 hours later, I had the filter on, yet still nothing being pumped through the primer. In the next few days I have tried a few more times, put some diesel fuel + diesel 911 in the filter (and also put 911 in my fuel tank) yet still nothing.

I am not sure if it may not have worked fully and my fuel lines are frozen? Or is there another problem involving pressure?

Any advice? I have asked around in town but have not been told any concrete information.
