Hagar, what do you mean by using ParoWax? The solid stuff? I'm a bit 
worried about using Canola etc in the winter,

  A : Yes the solid stuff   ---dissolved in dieselfuel.   (hot diesel fuel) 50 % Canola in winter is ok.

I mean it was *hot* after only a few minutes of 
running from dead cold.

Question :   did you have the return to tank hooked up ?.

VE pumps and HEAT ---- the pump has elastomeric or plastic  guts   so go
easy on the heat..

Do small freezer samples of your fuel  and you will know if it is ok for winter use.
See Archives  about Fuel 101.

I could never get RIMINI to solidify in freezer.    And I got a good cold one.
That cold ?   the school will be closed.

Yes I used too much ParoWax in winter one time ---that clogs the screen in the tank.
No problemo  --a good snort of Kerosene fixed that problem.

Looking back  -- Shawn you near got the 1.6 L Turbo  for 600 dollars Canadian.

Loren and Scott Kair and Val Christian  ...twisted my arm to at least TRY the turbo.
Before getting rid.

Well that was then ----NOW I am the turbo kid.      Same hill same type engine
no comparison  --at say 40 HP    the turbo is better. by far.

Hagar.
