Cold
It's not impossible to have temps down to -10F
I was thinking that a heated prefilter (like a racor 12V heated) in place of the little plastic throw aways, would be some added insurance in cold weather.
I plan to have it plugged in on a timer at home.. BUT.. I go away for a week at a time. I wouldnt want to come back to the car in some parking lot at 5 below zero and not have a prayer of getting it going.
I will of course make sure my glow plugs are up to specs. I was thinking that a few minutes of "preheat" on battery power into a racor filter would give me enough of a volume of fuel to go on.
Maybe the addition of a facet type pump to help the gloppy fuel. I am planning on running B100 in the summer, and some sort of Biodiesel/petrodiesel or k1 blend in winter.
Thoughts, opinions, wild guesses?
