installing block heater, advice appreciated

[sweep]

Note that most manuals call for coolant replacement at or about 1000 hrs so depending on usage that is an option to consider.

Personally I flushed my system and replaced my coolant as I was in the 1000 hr zone when I replaced my heater, (It died after 1100 hrs on a 1988 tractor)

Good luck, have fun.

Isn't 1000 hours a bit too long for any tractor? My NH Manual says every year but I'm sure they are just trying to protect themselves but still I find 1000 hours a lot on a diesel engine between anti freeze changes.

Thoughts anyone?

Just run the extension cord through the steering wheel.

That's a really good suggestion, really. DAMHIKT
