A system and method for controlling the temperature of the contents of storage vessels integral with an automotive transport power system, which includes a fluid-cooled internal combustion engine, is provided. A portion of the engine coolant fluid is circulated from the engine through one or more heat-exchange pipe coils, each located within a storage vessel carrying diesel fuel, compressed air, hydraulic oil, or the like, for use in automotive transport, to maintain a selected operating temperature in response to a temperature sensor. An auxiliary heating and pumping system is provided for use when the transport system is not in operation. The control system is particularly useful whenever the atmospheric temperature is high (above 90 DEG F.) or low (below 35 DEG F.).
