Gary,

Do you have a preference in pre-heaters? If yes, which brand?

Thanks.

I installed a Reiff pre-heater in a Tiger a few months ago. The 
installation went fairly well.

Personally, I have no need for one. The only time I ever needed a 
pre-heat, was in Twin Falls, Idaho. It was 20 degrees outside with a 
wind chill of -20 degrees. It was so cold (how cold was it???), when I 
unlocked the canopy, the windshield cracked. I had the engine heated 
for a half hour with a heater that blew heated air into the engine 
cowling.

One other time in Holbrook, Arizona, it was about 20 degrees outside. I 
was able to get the engine started with judicious use of priming and 
throttle. I let the engine IDLE for about 20 minutes before the oil got 
warm enough to fly.

Where do you live Bruce?  Does it get so cold you need a pre-heater?

Gary
