Easier to fix before you have a problem than after.
When was the last time the filter was changed, could have some water in the bottom reducing flow, as well as typical crud. So, new filter.
Blend in the right amount of additive. There is a big drop off at 10f or below, needs to be right.
In my state we run up to a 20% bio blend in diesel in summer, switches to a 2-5% blend in winter after October. It�s real important here to get fuel after October 1st for winter. Any such issues there? You will really struggle with this if it is this cold and you have high percent of bio in your tank.
Blending in #1 is better than using just the additive. I nearly always just use the additive, but I never leave the yard with my diesels.
911 can help you but getting a bucket of hot water on the fuel filter, or getting it back in a heated shed, or directing heat on it for a while will do more and quicker for you. Nearly all your problem is collected in the fuel filter right now looks a lot like shot, and it takes a long long time for any 911 to eat its way there and accomplish anything in any amount.
On my old engines, it�s hard to find #1 diesel on a quick run to town. I will buy a 2 gallon jug of kerosine, as expensive as it is, and blend that in the fuel tank as if it were #1 diesel. You judge for yourself if that is a good idea on the newer, less tolerant diesels of today. It�s the �quick fix� because I wasn�t prepared and stupid for my old stuff.

Except for last fourth of July's Old Gold show in Springfield, Illinois, I don't remember when it was so hot.
