So I bought 5 of these puppies:

They draw 5 Amps after startup, and run on diesel oil. Here are some pictures.

Does anyone know where I might find some operating instructions on them? I want to use one as a cab heater (and ersatz block heater) in the wintertime, for cases where I can't plug the truck in - part of the whole self suffiency thing I'm big about.

Has anyone worked with these before?

Oh yeah, I have 5 of them - let me know if you're interested in getting one for experimentation. I think my total cost, after being given it dry by the freight company, was about $65 each.

Thanks in advance,
Bob
