The Injector Line Heaters!
Friday, March 21, 2008
I first cut 6 5" pieces of the Teflon Tubing and then one-by-one crimped on a butt connector, clipped the 316 SS wire to length, and installed the closing connector.
Then I held the heaters up to the lines to figure out the length of each lead and chained all the heaters together in series and wrapped silicon tape around the exposed metal connectors.
I wrapped some Teflon tape around the injector lines and then, using silicon tape to hold it down, wrapped the heaters on the lines.
Then I put on two layers of silicon tape and the shiny/fiberglass insulating tape.
On top of all that I zip-tied on some pipe insulating foam. IT WORKS! draws around 8 amps, about 100 watts of heating power.
