As you may know, Max, we bought a house in Glade Spring, VA to winter
over in but fuel line freezing wasn't the reason.

I spent 9 winters in northern Maine and I sometimes drove my Vanagons
with temperatures that reached -30�F actual temperature (wind chill made
it seem colder than that).  Not once did I experience fuel line freezing
and my vehicles stayed outside.

The only way I can imagine such a problem is if there is water in the
fuel and/or filter.
