12V heat engine preheater
The SkyRC engine preheater uses technology similar to that used in Formula 1, Indy Car and by NASCAR teams. It will preheat your engine to 60-70°C in 10 minutes depending on the ambient temperature. It is ideal for starting small engines in winter.
The SkyRC engine preheater will bring all the critical parts of your heat engine into temperature, limiting the constraints on the moteur.Il helps to avoid cracks on the crankshaft, connecting rod and piston during the heating turn. It also makes it easier to get started, stress-free on the boot bench. Fuel consumption is reduced and you spend less time heating and tuning your engine. A preheated glow candle has an increased lifespan. It is also perfect for prowling by reducing the clamping of the new engine. You will discover that preheating the engine is a must. Most importantly, it will pay off more by improving the life of the engine and its performance!
