PowerTrac Cold Weather Heaters....

[Frank Sorbello]

I have a remote switch that I can activate from my iPhone. I have the heater plugged into it. At 3pm I remotely turned on the heater. I got home at 6pm. 18 degrees in the barn. Choke left wide open. Hit the key and she fired right up. Couldn't be happier with the heater.

Do you have anymore info on that switch ?

As long as there isnt debris as leaves and grass inside the cooling fins we've run the kholers in 95 deg heat all day long. The suburu we had to install 2 fans to suck and push the heat out from the engine compartment. It gets finicky when hot. Or just won't run, customers look at us a bit weird when one guy walks behind the loader with a large leaf blower blowing fresh air into the cooling fins just to get the job done. We really need a transplant kholer option, like years ago!!

3 hours and ready to go, that's what I wanted to hear!

These Robin engines cannot tolerate the heat in the PT tub. I'm convinced heat is the reason my engine is getting a major overhaul. Another fan, relocating fuel pump and better insulated exhaust will be done whenever I finally get my PT back.
