 |
|
It's getting towards that time of the year again when temperatures dip
and the oil viscosity thickens, making starting troublesome sometimes,
cranking that magic 220 rpm or so.
I'm thinking of installing an engine heater and there are a few out
there on the market. The Tanis one is reviewed on the RotaxOwner.com
site but at over $700 is definitely cream of the crop.
A more affordable option is either the Reiff between $250 and $550
depending on wattage or the E-Z Heat at $150.
Anyone installed the E-Z Heat one? Any good? Or maybe the Reiff which
seems to work in a similar way?
With the advent of internet personal hotspots and wireless
smartswitches, I can see myself turning on the engine heater using my
cell phone maybe 6 hours before flying to save a trip to the hangar.

I use and like the EZ HEAT on the 912S and the 914. Starts much easier with preheated oil and crankcase..
