Fuel heaters For SVO

<< < (2/3) > >>

Range Rover Blues:
Also try 1993 Cavallier, mine had a filter heater too.

Cheggs:
I ive just been looking at the heated fuel filters, but they only seem to warm the fuel if it is below 2 degrees then they only heat it to 6 degrees which is ok for diesel but doesn't it have to be about 80oc.

muddyjames:
where did you get that info from?

I would have thought the heater will warm it up more than that as the water running around it will be about 80c. I know you have to take in that there will be a constant flow of veg oil through it so it cant linger and warm up totaly. It is why I have bought a heat exchanger too, to boost the temp up hopefully. I know you can buy electric ones for alot more money!!

Dr.Ed:
The heated fuel filter is only heated to make the filtration easier and quicker, the main heating of the oil is done by the heat exchanger.

muddyjames:
I knew you would be along soon Ed!!  :lol:  :D
