buickanddeere, I was always under the impression the block heater, heated the oil via heat transfer from the block, which was the best heating system, re: block heater, magnet, inline rad hose heater, light bulb or hot coals (I know a guy that still does it). I can't aford to let it run 24/7 so I assume I should leave it plug in during the cold weather and let the engine warm up before using it. It has a decompression leaver I use it before I start the engine to get the oil moving without load. Is this the best way to help keep it longer, as it will have to last a long time.
thanks, tom
"often see the proud person"
Back in the late '50s my older cousin did this (he said it got the oil to the moving parts faster) and to make matters worse, he gunned the engine as he turned off the key, I was told years later all he was doing was washing out the oil on the rings.
