T4.75 block heater

[srodster]

Curious if anyone down south (SC), has a block heater in their T4.75. I have seen some threads on 100 hp tractors, but not specifically the T4.75. I have seen some folks use a 47126890 or an 8600333 w a 3100002, but when I look on the block, all I see are freeze plugs, and nothing that can be unscrewed, as they describe. So, wondering if I have to actually remove a freeze plug, or am I just missing the threaded plug somewhere? Hope to hear from some other T4.75 owners w experience on it.

Most if not every block heater I ever dealt with went in a frost plug hole, If it was a bigger engine they sometimes had a wye in the cord and two heaters that used two frost plugs. You should be able to get one that you insert in the hole where the frost plug was and then tighten the bolt up expanding it until it's locked firmly in the hole. There are screw in heaters but I never put one in or had any experience with them. I'd check with your dealer to see what they recommend and where to install it.

I mean for the 3x in 5yrs you may actually need it idk if I would even bother putting one in.
