When should I plug my diesel truck in?

Posted on 9/6/2019


You should plug in your diesel engine block heater when the temperatures start to drop below 40 degrees. This helps to keep your engine oil and coolant warmer to allow your engine to start more efficiently and much smoother.  This can also extend the life of your engine and starting system. 


Give us a call at (541) 791-2886 and let us take care of you. 


Happy Adventures,
