INVENTIVE PEOPLE HELP ME

[triple8s]

We had a land clearing machine at work. It traveled from job site to jobs site via a drop deck. & KW W900L and sometimes (most of the time) it wouldn't start when the temps were low. As they say necessity is the mother of invention here is what we did. We bought 4 qui disconnects for a hydraulic system, we used 1/2 inch flush face self sealing so trash wouldn't get into the system. We then installed two ball valves on the machine in its heater hose lines and two ball valves in the KW heater hoses. We then made two hydraulic hoses up so the antifreeze from the ken worth would circulate through the Hydro Axe ( land clearing machine) thus preheating the engine.

For an application to heat an airplane engine one could build a heater box that could be connected to a vehicles coolant system and a small 12v circuit to operate a blower to force air through a heater core in the homemade heater box. The heater box could be used to blow the warmed air through a duct to heat the engine of an aircraft. Once the engine was preheated the ball valves closed the two antifreeze lines ( umbilical ) is disconnected and rolled up, placed in a large plastic trash bag and stored in the trunk along with the heater box. If it was very cold I guess a fella could get an inverter installed in the auto and go that route. Lots of ways to skin the cat I guess it just depends on how ya wanna go about it.
