Heaters have been on my list for nearly thirty years, since reading (and re-reading) Sikorsky's Drive It Forever. But as a South Texan and n a commuter but rarely, it's not ever been quite practical. The cost of one of these Cummins TurboDiesels has me re-thinking it.

ESPAR D5 Install on CTD

ESPAR: Impressions After Installation

In a discussion some years back on BITOG was the oil analyst recommendation to avoid cooking the oil; above 150F starts to be a problem due to localized hot spots.
