Looks like you folks in central USA as far down as Texas will not be running diesels for a few days temps will be close to zero in AM , huge cold snap from Artic martin

Why not?
If we get snow this winter, I'll do a video...

Broken English--any issue starting?? extra ether ?? martin

No Martin, Just the same fuel I always use, and the engine started right up in a couple of flicks.
In any case, I only use two diesel fuels: My "fixed compression" fuel, which I have to mix myself, and English commercial "Sport" fuel, that I use for everything else (i.e. everything other than fixed compression).
Anyway, you've given me a good idea. Most winters we do get a bit of snow, so I'll keep a watch on the weather forecast and try to get a good video...

Keeping the engine warm helps with the starting, both on glow and diesel. Biggest problem is that tygon fuel line becomes very hard, and it is difficult to refuel if that involves taking the fuel line off at the carb.

The actual flying is a little tricky too, cold hands or thick gloves, either way the feeling is not the same as in the summertime...

Martin, One thing that may not be obvious to you is that for us, in Europe, it's very surprising to see someone in Florida saying "Brrr"!
BTW, I went flying two days ago, in a temperature of around 3 to 5°C, and the PAW 19RC TBR started easily and ran perfectly.

We have -2°C today and a snowstorm, called Sven in sweden, is raging in over the north of Europe now...

It gets so hot where I am this time of year we normally cease flying around ten o'clock in the morning.

Haha, we all have our own weather problems then...

I've been to Brisbane once during your winter, it was like a good summer to me

Here in Minnesota it has been +6*F to -12*F for the last week. Not running any engines around here for awhile.
