CAT 247B running rough

Our machine has about 500 hours on it. It runs rough and does not have power it once did. Also we have a lot of trouble starting it in the cold, even in the 20's. Fuel filter was changed recently. Priming will help for a few minutes, then problem returns.

Is there a procedure to bleed air trapped in the fuel system? Also, we can't find a plug on the machine to connect to an electrical outlet to heat the block.

Any ideas on this one? We have 2 solid weeks of work for this machine, and its gonna be cold.
