Blockheater help needed

They also make recirculating coolant pumps that heat your coolant and pump it through your engine. They get plumbed right in line with your radiator hoses. I am planning on putting one in my Nissan Patrol since it doesn't like starting up when cold. Here's a link to the one I'm getting. From reading reviews, they work the best out of the several types of heating systems.

Agreed. When I lived in Alaska I had used various types of heaters on several different vehicles. (alas, not on a VX) but those types IMHO are far superior to the others and easy to install as well.

T/J... How'd you get a Patrol in the States Ascinder?

Popped up on my local craigslist about 5-6 months or so ago. It's one of about 2,200 ever imported into the US before Nissan and Toyota came to a "closed doors" agreement that Toyota would get the american jeep market and Nissan would get the sports car market. It's not a modern Patrol like you're probably thinking, it's a 1967. There's a couple of pics in my gallery. Yes, I have the top and doors too It's a giant PITA because stuff is always breaking, but on the bright side, it's extremely simple to work on so all you really need is a screwdriver, pliers and a hammer
