I've gotten 2 in a row that have gone bad from YT tractor parts. 1000-watt 3/4 NPT block heater for an Oliver 1650D (and other tractors). I've followed the instructions to the letter and installed them carefully in the factory location (cast iron elbow below the water pump). I keep the right level and mixture of coolant and do not leave it plugged in with the engine running. No leaks, new hoses, new water pump. They seem to work for a week then quit. At least they fail consistently in about the same amount of time! Do you have to say any specific words when they are warming up ? Is anyone having the same trouble?
