I had no idea you could buy replacement parts for the fuel thermostat from the dealer. I was told I had to buy a whole new unit as mine was leaking, and went I went to mess with it the plastic end broke off at the nipple. It was a pricey little part, too. Like $130, and the new one has silly plastic nipple as well.

I wonder if you could just delete that whole fuel preheater, I mean is it really necessary this side of the arctic circle? It would also remove a bunch of clutter in the engine bay. I dont think the older models were blessed with this, were they?
