Hi after some help on a 3 cylinder air cooled deutz engine in a linde. the gas system is a impco cobra (not orginal i think?). the gas regulater is heated by the exhaust gases.
when frist visited late one afternoon the regulater was frezzing stright away and runnning poorly,
changed cobra system and truck ran well but system still cold to touch.
So my questions are is this common for air cooled engines to have gas system to be cold to the touch?
The only idea i had was to restrit the exhaust gases through the regulater to heated it up more?
any advice with be great.
