Well I finished up my latest project today. Got the pre-heater working. I had a feeling (hoped) it was the thermostat. Problem is the second screw holding the cover was against the frame with an inch clearance. Went to Lowe's and got an offset ratcheting screwdriver. Yeah this'll work, well someone had obviously tried that before and stripped the head of the screw! Not to be defeated by this latest setback I decided to just bypass it. Plugged it back in and it works! Pulling 10 amps and warming up. Also extended the slobber tubes to behind the radiator with some pvc pipe and elbows. Hopefully this will keep some of the grime off the radiator.
Hey Steve, think Bruce would give us a discount for Simple Green?
