Congrats Bob. Now that the weather is cooling off, I find a half hour of
block heater in the morning will give a summer start on 50/50

However, no doubt I have to face winter, and either bite the bullet and go
straight diesel, or install the dual system.

I have the valve and an outboard motor tank, so all I need is the ambition
to do it.
