The temperature gague was beginning to rise. I plugged it in and checked it in a hour and a half. It's brass with an element about 4" long (2" after it's doubled over) It's 400 watts. Yesterday I bought a block heater for my B2400 from Kubota. If you were in Fairbanks at -60 you may never get there.įor your more moderate overnight temps it will keep the block warm very nicely, especially if you plug it in while the engine is still warm. The freeze plug heaters are usually a couple hundred watts and really do take several hours to warm a cold block. My experience is with gas engines in Alaska but I think it pertains in this case. I had instructions for it at one time, now can't find them. It is the type that replaces a freeze plug in the block. The only time I have left this type running overnight is when the temps hit -25 or so. If you are referring to the "can" type that is spliced into a coolant hose and sounds like your mothers percolator when it is running, these are generally 1000-1500 watt units that will do the job in an hour or so. We can find the parts you need for your Ford machinery in a quick and efficient manner.What is the proper way to use the coolant immersion block heater on my TC29? Is one supposed to plug it in a couple of hours before starting, or just plug it in and leave it during cold spells?īill, if you are talking about the type that replaces a freeze plug in the engine: they draw little more power than a light bulb but are quite effective because of their position inside the engine, I leave this type on 24/7 whenever the engine is off and the weather is cold.
