i'm thinking fuel temp would be fairly stable once it reaches the engime 
compartment. for starters it get pressurized before it gets 
sent, so that should stabilize cold tank temps, then in the engine itself, 
shortly before it hits the injectors, the metal tubing has 
plenty of time to absorb ambient heat.
