    This week in Quebec it’s been -30 c during the night. I plug my block heater for 3 hours and the oil went up to -10 c. Still cold but it makes a big difference when cold start.

    Hi Casey, Dave in Edmonton. The block heater keeps up you engine oil in the oil pan from freezing and needs at least 2 hours in -15c, even with Synthetic. But the rest of the oil in the chambers are still cold and will need a few seconds more to get things moving. Traditionally, diesel engine has to warm up the glow-plugs before engine start happens. On your dash there'll be a glow-plug light when first turn on your accessories. When that light turns off, glow-plugs are ready and engine start is faster.
    I haven't driven any new diesel trucks lately, so the tech maybe better and warming the glow-plugs may not be needed.

    • @Casey250

      Thanks! I know with keyed vehicles you turn it to on, wait for the glow plug light, then turn to start position. I wasn't sure with this because it's push button.

      Couple of corrections here. The block heater does not prevent the oil from freezing. It keeps your coolant warm which then keeps other components warm and creates less wear when you start your engine. Your engine oil will warm when it passes through the warm block. In extreme cold, you actually should have an oil pan heater as well. This keeps the oil warm through the night and allows for faster flow when you start. I have 3 heaters on my truck but I’ve never plugged any of them in in Victoria except to check that they still work.
      Your block heater didn’t need to be used in Victoria during the cold snap. I didn’t plug mine in until I was below -10 to -15 when I worked up north. It doesn’t hurt, it just uses electricity. One or two nights will do nothing to your power bill. You do want to plug it in for about 4 hours though to bring it up to it’s peak temperature.
      Also, glow plugs, no matter the temp should take no more than 15 seconds to warm up. Plenty of people drive diesels in the Arctic

    At the end of November, I ordered what will be my first Jeep ever. It is a 2021 JL Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited. It finally came in this last week and I will finally be taking delivery of it on Wednesday or Thursday. I cannot wait either!
    I was born and raised in San Diego, California and grew up off roading, but mainly in trucks. But I now live in Northeast Colorado and have lots of places that I can go off roading that are all, within a few hours of me.
    My Rubicon is also a white one too, but I opted for the V-6 and 8 speed automatic. I considered going with the turbo charged 4 cylinder but decided to go with the naturally aspirated V-6 instead. Especially considering that we live in a higher altitude than most and when going out off roading into the Rocky Mountains, the elevations will be even higher so I felt the naturally aspirated engine was the better choice to go with.

      @fax10 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@thereissomecoolstuff I understand the lubrication argument but with multi viscosity oils and new engine designs, lubrication isn’t an issue at temperatures above freezing, or even considerably below freezing. You are free to plug in your vehicle whenever you like, however it is unnecessary and a waste of electricity and money in my opinion. In the 1940’s and 50’s with single weight oils, having the correct oil for the temperature was very important. Block heating consisted of putting a trouble light under your hood or lighting a fire under the engine. In aircraft, they would drain the oil out every night and heat it on a stove before putting it back in the next day. We are way beyond those days. Fluids do break down with age but I have never heard of fluids oxidizing as a reason to keep a block heater plugged in.
      As I mentioned on another post, I have 3 heaters on my truck. A block heater, oil pan heater and a transmission pan heater (automatic). Other than to check that they still work on occasion, I haven’t used them in this climate in Victoria for years. My truck is pushing 500,000km and the engine still runs like new.

    Hey Casey, I’m a bit surprised that you have a block heater installed with the climate we have here in Vic. Was that a standard option? Do you go places overnight that get much colder and are away from electricity? You may want to look into a pad heater for your oil pan. I can run mine off a DeWalt power station. Block heaters use too much power to use away from the grid (unless you have a generator) but a pan heater is only 100 watts and will help your starts if you are at the ski hill on a cold day. Usually only needs less than an hour to heat the oil to peak as it’s only heating one spot instead of your whole block. It’s not as good as a block heater but sometimes it’s all you need.
    Might be overkill for your needs but it’s an option you may not have been aware of.
    phillipsandtemro.com/solutions/specialty/pad-heaters/
    One last thing. If you use the block heater at all during the night, be sure to bang on your hood before you start the Jeep. Lots of animals like to crawl in next to the engine because it’s warm and they will make a hell of a mess in the moving parts of a starting engine. It’s also an awkward conversation with your neighbour if it’s their cat that met it’s end in your serpentine belt.
