Hi
This is how I do it:
I use a portable on wheels airconditioner, a small heater and a aluminium foil
type duct which can be bought at a DIY store.
Normally an airconditioner will take warm air from the rear inlet, cool it and
blow the cold air out in front and the hot resultant air out of its "exhaust outlet".
This outlet pipe is usually routed out of a window or maybe a hole in
the ceiling and out.
So what I do is to extend the standard outlet with the aluminium flxible duct and
route it in to the engine bay between the fuselage and cowling.
I place the little heater at the rear of the airconditioner at the inlet.
The hot air from the exhaust is hot and a strong airflow.
This works much better than just a small heater with a fan or other sump heaters.
I set this up as a first thing and then start pre-flight. By the time I am done
with the pre-flight, the CHT temp raised by at least 20 degrees Celsius.
I must say that the winters never really get colder than -2 to -3 degrees Celsius
and the YAK-52 live inside a hanger.
regards
Paul

I use E-Z heat pads. one on oil tank, one on nose case and one on the
case. Made in Chetek. Nice guys.
http://e-zheat.com/store/
All route to a singe 110 plug. of course I leave the hanger to heat to
about 40 in winter so it never drops below zero in the hanger.
THere is oil in the cooler and I have heard anecdotes of warm engie oil
and very cold oil in the lines and cooler. When cranked the preassure ri
ses
in the cooler or lines and may lead to cracks.
