Deadeye,
Just curious. I prime mine same as you. When the temp. drops below 20 degrees, I stay at home and build.

not the sharpest tack in the box.
Insulated coveralls, Caribou boots, heavy winter jacket with hood, and my trusty mongo mitt with a chemical pack. It keeps me plenty toasty for a ten minute flight. I usually throw a chem pack inside the plane by the battery when it gets below 20, but I never seem to have a hard time starting my planes.
