tanker heating using exhaust

[area52]

Somebody on here had posted a while back about the duece fire tankers using the exhaust to heat the water tank to keep it from freezing. Been searching and I guess I am not putting in the right terms.

Does anyone know the TM# or have a drawing showing how the exhaust was piped to keep the tank from freezing?

I have been seriously planning on using waste veggie oil for fuel. Since my commute to work is not real long, I want some other way besides engine coolant to heat my veggie oil so I can use it in a short period of time on the road.

TM 9-2320-361-10 shows the basics and explains it. TM 9-2320-361-20P has the parts breakdowns

I have the exhaust diverter valve if that is something you will be looking for....it's from an M50A3 water tanker.

The deuce fire truck tanks are not heated by the exhaust, as others have mentioned its the deuce water tankers (M50 series).

Best wishes,

This is what I have, or had, rather since it was purchased by Adam a while ago.
