Block Heater

[SunsetFarms9530]

Anyone have the plug in on the front of the truck for the block heater? I just got a new radiator and it was hanging there off the front of the truck when I got it home and I didnt know if it would be alright to use it while the truck sits over night? I have never had a problem with the truck starting after I let the glow plug light go off. It has sat at for 3-4 days and started up not problem in 30 and below. I was just wanting to have the truck already warmed up and ready to go in the mornings when I go hunting and stuff when its cold out instead of letting it warm up for 10-15 min in the morning.

Just let me know if it would be good or bad to go ahead and plug it in at night and have it warm already?

Alright I was thinking that too but i know that the glow plugs are different and I didnt want that to mess with them. I would think that they should be alright if I would have it plugged in overnight.

It's fine to plug in overnight. I usually put mine on a timer to cut it on 2 hrs before I plan on leaving, just to knock the chill off.
