It’s Time For The Block Heater

Monday, October 22nd, 2007

If you live up in the north like me, now is the time to find the engine heater, or in my case the power cord for the block heater. It near freezing temperatures here and I have started to use the block heater during the colder nights to save fuel when starting,  remember a cold engine uses a lot of fuel.

It’s a good idea to remind the rest of the family that there’s a cable attached to the car, otherwise you might end up with a broken cable or timer. Talking about the timer, I always put the timer on two hours when it’s still mild temperatures to not waste electricity.

Keep the winter driving safe, Ha ha says my wife.
