need block heater for 81 TX2160F

[D. Rudd]

Anyone know a source for parts for this old Bolens/iseki TX2160F. Need a block heater replacement for it, and parts seem hard to come by, any help would be greatly appreciated

If you need a Frost Plug Heater, I have a new 40mm that I will give a great deal on.

Thanks.
MM.

Larso, thanks for updating the list.
I sent out 15 emails looking for a replacement hydraulic pump and only got 4 responses.
The 11 that did not respond are not on your list.

Sideways, you're welcome. Looking at Shaeffer's email address now, I think it has changed. Les Shaeffer always seems to have any part needed for our tractors, or can get it. Not sure about prices tho...

A frost plug heater is not tractor specific, but rather an aftermarket product.
Simply measure the opening of your frost plug and order from your local auto parts.
Also they should have suppliers catalogues that would referance the plug.

In my case (Mitsubishi) they had referance.
Not very expensive, runs in the $20-$30 range.
Do get a 400/500 watt rather than ,say, 200 watts.

Install is very easy provided access is not too cluttered. 10 min job!
