Bear:

When you went glass you may only have one fuel indicator (my guess).  Either wire
it so you can "look" at each tank individually with a switch of put in one
of these dual ei gauges.  You would have been aware of the fuel imbalance and
then been able to use Gill's vent switch system to even out your fuel burn.  I
assume the senders are resistive and the CJ is 24 volt so they have one that
fits this application.

I have one in my CJ and it works well.

Well...I don't fly the CJ unless it is 40 degrees or more so there is no need for
cabin heat.  However, if you must, I would skip ducting, cube heaters, etc
and just opt for heated clothing.  Or, as an alternative, you could get a cold
weather flight suit (CW/u-64-P).  They are readily available on eBay.

Here is a source for battery operated heated clothing.  Note they also have plug
in clothing.  Just make sure your wiring to the power outlet (cigarette lighter)
has the proper wire size and your alternator/generator can handle the extra
demand.  Also note their plug in clothing is all 12 VDC.

Fly Warm,
