Zerostart 3100040 Engine Block Heater: Ford, Lincoln, Mercury. CSA Approved, 120V, 600W Review

Fits my 2005 F150 5.4. Installation was tedious but easy. I turn it on at 4am before I leave and by the end of the driveway my truck's coolant temp is 125°F. It's about 0°F. Looking forward to it in -35 degrees in the morning.

That's cool! Works great on my 2007 Ford Expedition. PLEASE BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN UNPLUGING THE ORIGINAL PLUG! I accidentally hit the block. Luckily the mechanic managed to fish it out.

ECT monitoring shows a temperature rise of around 20-25 degrees Fahrenheit within 30 minutes of connection. The

Works as advertised, needs to be about 30cm longer to fit on the front grille of my 2006 f250. Push out the block plug with a 5 gallon bucket to catch the liquid.

After that, pull out the plug with pliers and put the loosened heating element in the hole, press the plug with the tool with one hand, and tighten the bolt with the other, fixing…

I rubbed coolant on the rubber gasket, I tightened the bolt, and as I was adding coolant a very small drop began to ooze out, so I removed the heater and applied a smooth, thin coat of ultra-black sealant to the hole and surface, and installed it again. and allowed the sealant to dry for…
