Octogenarians and Nonagenarians Starting Dialysis in the United States

A starting aid for a diesel engine comprises a housing (10) having a longitudinal passageway (12). Fuel is admitted to an upstream section (13) of the passageway via an inlet opening (14) and the fuel exits a downstream section (16) of the passageway via outlet openings (17). An electromagnetically-controlled plate valve (18) regulates a flow of fuel from the upstream, to the downstream section of the passageway, and a helical heater coil (32) heats the fuel as it passes along an annular part (31) of the downstream section (16) of the passageway (12).
