Zerostart 3100040 Engine Block Heater for Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, 1-1/2-Inch Diameter | CSA Approved | 120 Volts | 600 Watts

While I was adding the coolant I noticed there was a very small drip, so I removed the heater and applied a thin layer of ultra black sealant to the bore and face of the heater and allowed the sealant to dry for hours with a shop light. The car started cooling after I drove it around and let it get cold then drove, checked coolant level when cold NEVER when hot again after two cycles of hot, then cold then hooked up the heater to the car with my outside temperature at 34 degrees and waited 1 1/2 hours then checked temperature gauge. As I started the unit, there was no cold air within the first half hour, but it was still not warm within the last 90 minutes, so at this point it's still a good purchase since it would take 5 minutes to reach The test is being re-run at this moment at At 31 degrees in Michigan, the temperature is 21 Exactly one hour from now I will follow up with you. **Follow up word for word ------- There seems to be a 1. 5-month difference between 21 and 22 Bringing in warm air for 2 hours would result in a temperature of 60 ish degrees instantly. I had warm air in about a minute after 2 hours, 22 degrees. Because I assumed this is how it would all play out, I'm happy with the result. In order to get any heat at all, you should have remote start installed.

Even if you only use it once or twice a year, it's worth having. A 2002 Ford Expedition 5 has been installed with this device. The 4x4 format has four 4x4 wheels. This installation is easy and painless, especially when it is done when a coolant system flush is also completed. I have had this heater installed for about a year and a half now without any leaks to report (Installed Keeps the truck at a good temperature when the outside temperature drops. Keeping windows cleaner following snow and ice is much easier and easier thanks to the engine's ease of starting. As indicated by ECT monitoring, about 20-percent of patients were infected There is a 25 degree F increase in temperature for every 30 minutes that the plug is on. An ideal cord would have been a bit longer. That is the only minor complaint. connected a short piece of outdoor rated extension cord to the heater power cord, then sealed it with electrical tape. The heater has been functioning perfectly since I applied the tape, and so far, so good.

It works well. DO NOT BREAK OR DAMAGE THE ORIGINAL PLUG WHEN PULLING IT OUT! During the course of my work, I accidently hit my It was a lucky catch for the mechanic. In addition, you will have to drain all your coolant if your car has a 5 liter. It is a 4 Triton engine. On the bottom of the engine is a drain plug. Remove it first or you will get a faceful.

Apparently works as advertised, but I need it about 1ft longer to install it on the grille of my 2006 Ford F-250. To catch the fluid, pop off the block plug and put a 5 gallon bucket underneath. Tap the round block plug with a hammer until it swivels and drains. Using a big screw driver, wedge it on the top corner of the round block plug and wedge the screw driver with it. Having done that, pull out the plug with pliers and place the loosened heat element into the opening, then with one hand, press the plug against the engine block with a tool, and with the other, tighten the bolt that holds the seal to the engine. If you would like to reuse old fluid, you can filter it using cheesecloth. With a laser therm hooked up to an engine block installed for about two hours at below 0 degrees, the engine block was at 83 degrees, the surrounding metal around the engine block was approximately 3 degrees, so the coolant was heating up and the engine block was warming up. In my opinion, this product deserves 4 stars due to the need to extend the plug to where I wanted it to be. BREAKING UPDATE This date ranges from Jan 2018 to MAR 2018 Despite the low temperature of 24 below zero, the block heater is functioning as it should. It is easy for the truck to start, and the heater is ready within about five minutes It took me 7 minutes to run. This is what I did last year, when it was warm, and it's now This is a good idea. Also, I use a timer so that it is turned on and off periodically during the day. Energy is precious, so don't let it be wasted.

During a full engine rebuild, I installed the RTP cap while the engine was on a stand. A few weeks after installing it, the cap began to leak. As part of the repair, I drained the system, pulled it out, and replaced the O ring. There was no leak for almost two weeks before it began to leak.

I have a 2005 F150 5, so this is a direct fit. My truck coolant is at 125*F by the end of the driveway after the installation was a mess, but straightforward. I run it for 4 hours in the morning before leaving. There is a temperature of around 0 degrees Fahrenheit here. On those, I am really looking forward to it.
