Has anyone ever tried an engine heater on a marine engine? I know the car guys usually put these on the big air cooled heads to pre heat their motors before racing. Just wasn't sure if they would fit a marine engine with a water jacket like a 21 or a 45.
I like to get the motor hot before I after run it to help the oil make it into every little cavity inside. I thought instead of running it, maybe I could just get an engine heater and hook it up to the 12 volt battery in my field box. It could also help with break in and pre heating on a cold day.
Anyone ever try one?
Thanks,
Brian
