B21 starts, stalls. Below freezing, Gelled fuel line?

[joea99]

Pre-heated, glowed. Started, idled low, quit. Now starts and quits.

Unscrewed and removed fuel filter and fuel only drips out. There is fuel in the tank. I did have water last summer (don't ask) but drained it and ran it for several small jobs after that.

What's a good fuel treatment for this? Do I dare try to heat the hoses?

So a heat gun applied to the inlet started fuel flowing, now warming up. Still, what fuel treatment will fix this?

Power service in the white bottle. About 1-2 oz/5 gallons will work.

There is also a "911" product in a red bottle

What is the temperature?

911 red bottle is for fixing screw ups & frozen fuel. White bottle is for preventing it. If it's a water problem there are some sticks & stuff that will absorb water but not fuel, or you dump/drain the tank.

There is a product from Clean Flo (without w). It's a blue-ish bottle. This product removes moisture.

Since water settles to the bottom of the tank and you have some flow now, just drain a quarter of fuel and it should take the water with it. It doesn't take much to plug the line.
