D4400 manifold flamethrower

Yes, when they are tuned up they work well. Just called a Manifold Heater.
These scans should answer your questions.

Where's the pics????????

Old Magnet...
Once again you step up and help the new guy.
Thank you very much.
I think I would drive a long way to buy you a beer and shake your hand.
Pictures will be along as soon as I get the Missus to help with them.
3 very nice cameras here and im not qualified for any of them.
I do well to read and write and turn wrenches.

Where can you buy the heater? My neighor was telling me that the Oliver tractors of the 1970s used a air intake heater,would this work on a d47j.
Thanks Joe

there is a version available today called a Thermostart. Used on Ford, Perkins, Yanmar and other diesels. A search on "thermostart" will get some hits to show about these. They would only be useful on tractors with a battery as opposed to the CAT design using the magneto to ignite the fuel.

Cat had both battery and magneto fired heaters. Check my earlier post on instructions.

Have some pictures ,I think.

Chris,

Here's the pictures. Keep in mind that these diagrms are for a D4 with the D4400
engine and this set up runs off the pony motor magneto.

Hope it helps, Josh
