My 85 Ford diesel has a heater that goes around the line going to the filter. Not a glow plug,but a heater none the less.

My 6.5 diesel has a factory heater on the bottom of fuel filter. It's not a glow plug per-say but it does have a pipe that extends up into the filter.

The Cummins in my truck has a fuel heater. They're more common than you'd think. It's not a glowplug, but rather a heating element.

It is a option on the new small frame 7030 series deere tractors, maybe others. It is supposed to be automatic. Sure couldnt hurt on those -20F mornings.

Some heavy trucks use heaters in the diesel tank

My 2000 Ford F-250 has a fuel filter bowl heater. Sam
