Engines / Re: warming the lister 6/1

Hello Halfcrazy
I too live off grid and run my 6/1 4-5hrs/day when it's cloudy. I have a 30gal tank that my listeroid thermosiphons to for cooling. When it is cold out, I rap the tank with an old army blanket when I turn off the engine and that keeps my 6/1 warm enough through reverse thermosiphoning to have an easy start the next morning.

PS One of these days I'll post pictures
