I have a Ford 1700 about 28 years old, 2 cyl diesel, that's a hard starting when cold even with extra glow plugging.
TSC have a few different block heaters.
1. is the infamous dip stick, 200 watts I think.
2. a magnetic unit to stick on block, 600 watts.
3. lower radiator heater goes in line I believe lower hose.
4. another one they call external, has 2 inlets for hose, not sure if it circulates the water.
which one would be the best?
the magnetic would be the easiest but not sure how good it would heat motor. I plan on using a timer so it goes on 2-3 hours before use.
Thanks, JB.
