Then there is the Alaska way. Drain the oil and take it inside. Then
during breakfast, heat oil to 200 degrees. Pour hot oil back into engine. Engine nice and warm. Chase off Grizzlies. Start airplane. Rich wrote in message ... No No! Ground running is NOT good for an engine. Uneven cooling, you know! Take it up for a 1 hour FLIGHT each four hours! That's the PROPER way to keep it warm.

Start airplane. Your engine isn't warm, the oil is. You are much better off heating the oil while it is still in the plane. |
