Anyone out there use a 2 tank WVO system in very cold winters? Like MN, Dakotas, Canadian Prairies? I'm talking lows down to -40 C a few times a year.
I'm assuming the WVO lines will usually gel overnight... does the coolant circulation system ungel it enough to run WVO without clogging the filter? Would you have to strap the coolant and WVO lines together and maybe wrap them together with pipe insulation so that the heat from coolant will ungel the lines between the tank and engine? Would that even be enough? I'm new to this kind of winter so I don't have much intuition about how things behave when it gets that cold!
If anyone out there has practical experience with this climate and setup, I'd love to hear it. I've got a couple of salvaged Plantdrive kits I'd like to put to use.
