Drop a second battery in there for good measure.. After all, real diesels (such as an Oldsmobile) have real batteries..
Andrew, I missed your big long post back there! (ie. "Although I prefer to take a different approach WRT presentation, the gist of...")I hear what you are saying.. I was mainly thinking of this as an option so that I did not have to worry about plugging the car in.. but I may just have to go that route.. as 110v is better than 12v clearly. Only thing is that my electric bill is already $300+ per month Virtues of having a pool and sauna I guess? Mind you I do not pay this bill.. just saying.. my contributions will be more if I am drawing that much more electricity for my use.. Would it be the same block heater as the 1.6's require? or is it different?
