Any updates on this issue? Did you actually get to the implementing and testing of the system?
Yes, I want to know that too! I want to know how it works in real life - how long it holds temperature and how much that 1 gallon of wax can increase engine temperature.
Probably what is needed is electric circulalion pump - so you can release heat before starting the engine.
And then at least one solenoid valve and controller something like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Automatic-Di...item25716f4675
