Shock *Heating*?
In another thread (about cold starting) it was mentioned that Alaskan bush
pilots routinely drain their oil, take it inside, and heat it on the stove before starting in the morning. While this guarantees a warm(er) engine, wouldn't this risk damage to the engine from shock heating (assuming there is such a thing), by suddenly introducing boiling hot (or nearly so) oil to a cold-soaked engine? -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
