Is the fuel heater on a PSD on all the time?

Is the fuel heater on a PSD on all the time or is it controlled by the computer to come on when the temps get down to a certain level.
Also, what is the temperature the fuel is heated to? I am just thinking of how well the factory heater would work with SVO.

Thanks!!

Don't know about on status & temp. You need to warm the wvo in the tank, though, and just using the HFCM won't do that.

I think the fuel heater is on all the time, but it wouldn't be capable of sufficiently heating the fuel on it's own.
