This morning at 17F oat and about 30F in the hangar it was 60F for the engine. The trick is in placing the quilt close the air inlets so there are not chimneys for the warm air to escape. I just stuff the quilt in the holes. The light just stays on during the winter and gets inserted from below at the cowl exit. It starts right up. I take the quilt and some bungee cord to secure it when I fly out for breakfast. Two hours later it still has enough heat to start right up. -------- Ron Lendon WW Corvair with Roy's Garage 5th bearing CH 601 XLB N601LT - Flying http://www.mykitlog.com/rlendon Corvair Engine Prints: https://sites.google.com/site/corvairenginedata/ Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=414549#414549 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message zenith601-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Zenith601-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/zenith601-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/zenith601-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
