Realy stupid question. Where would you find the block heater? And does one come with our cars in Canada?

 

might have, not sure.

most of the time its a heating element stuck in one of the freeze caps.

 

here is an on-line site with one...

I just checked the site and they dont have one bellow a 2000 max

 

Does the block heater really help on a gas engine? We have one on our Diesel yard forklift and that helps a ton to get that beast started on the cold mornings... but never had problems with my car not starting on those days... BTW my 280zx came from Canada and has a block heater... dunno if its stock or aftermarket... but if it was stock I would imagine the max would get one too since they are both susposed to be "luxury" Nissans

 

Seeing as you are in Winterpeg, should have come with one. Just look for the plug.

 

Lol I looked all over for the damn plug can't find the little buger hanging anywhere.

 

It helps big time. Helps with gas milage, cold starts ect.
