Hi, everyone
We too are having issues with our car starting this winter (1980 300
SD). Hubbie put about 4 different hose heaters on it last winter. The
last one finally worked once or twice. (We won't mention the local car
parts store) We tried it again in November and it seemed to be doing
fine and then the morning we had appointments to keep 80 miles away and
temp was -20, guess what? Yep-- it didn't work at all. We made it to
appointments, but used up our "easy" travel margin of time for sure!!
So, my question is: the block heaters sound more dependable and
efficient but hubbie is concerned about problems installing in the old
car. He thinks it will be hard to seal up after removing the old plug,
which seems to be another big concern, too. Any feedback from you
experts? Should we keep trying the hose heaters, and is there one that
really works long term?? Thanks for advice!
Wishing you all a Wonderful Christmas Season and a Great New Year to
come, Christy
