Are you talking about the grid heater on the intake or the actual fuel heater in the fuel filter housing? I'm guessing the grid heater. You can delete them. My brother's 92 F-350 does not have one. His timing is set at 22* and that thing will start not plugged in below 20* in 3 revolutions. It amazes me. It's a P-pump 96 215hp engine. 24v's tend to start a little slower due to the electronics needing to see signals and what not. But if your area doesn't get really cold, it isn't a deal breaker. I usually try to get them installed before I fire a truck up and drive it out the door because if I don't do it before I start driving it, there is a good chance it won't get done. That's because it'd be getting driven all the time. Haha
