Block heater on a B diesel - Freeze plug location? (1 Viewer)

[79bj40]

Does anyone here know where the 50mm freeze plug on a B diesel is located?

I moved to a colder climate a year ago and bought a block heater freeze plug from cruiserparts.net. I used to have a B diesel that had one located on the drivers side towards the front but I can't seem to locate one on the B diesel in my 40.

Anyone?

Thanks in advance,

Usually in the middle frost plug. It can bea bear to put one in its so tight.

Id look at circulation heater to add inline. Ive seen great results from this. I mean if its getting plugged in anyways id go that route.

-31 outside temp, convection heater +129

These things work and are totally simple to install on the hdt or hz blocks.

A circulation heater...I'll have to check into that. I found the freeze plug and it's a tight fit for sure. I think getting the old one out wouldbe the toughest part of the job.

I search on the circulation heaters but feel free to post a link if you know of a good one.

Thanks,
