Aux. Diesel Heater Unit (Webasto or similar)
28. Oct 2010 at 20:47

Wanted Please for one of Deb`s 'projects': a diesel powered auxiliary coolant heater unit from any diesel Miggy being broken, which has been equipped with one.
Working or not! Wink

I`m planning a stand-alone water/air heater unit, so that when the dogs and I go to (the frequently) inclement sheepdog trials, we can stay toasty and dry in the car....I intend on running the heater with cheap red-diesel. Thumbs Up!

They run on red, and ablow out warm air. the smallest ones don't cost much on e-bay......about £50. Got one in my caravan.................................a gallon of red lasts about a week!!

I'm also told, used on some canal barges . ....and also apparently, almost impossible to fix once they fail BMW breakers are a good source, but I guess the price to match.

After a couple of enquiries, it seems the "mini-propec" is no longer made, and hasn't been made since 2002!!

(means I won't get any spares for mine, then!)

The closest thing is a PROPEX heater, (similar name, but not the same company) seems to do the same job though, but a bit bigger size.

Hope that helps............................

I did do a search and couldn`t find any by Propec.....I`ll have a look on the E of Bay for Propex; as usual, funds are an issue, but maybe I`ll be lucky. Wink
