125 ft block heater extension cord?
Hey guys, noobie here :hellox: Anyway I'm picking up a 94 F250 with a factory turbo 7.3 idi tomorrow :yeah: and I was wondering what your opinions on running a 100' + a 25' (both 14/3) extension cord for my block heater. And no I can't park any closer as my parking spot isn't any closer to the house. Thanks in advanced!

I don't see any issue with that. I'm running a couple of ext. cords to get to my dodge.
|
its not a huge draw, should be fine.
|
Alright thanks guys, I was kinda worried that they would be a little small gauge wise. I might end up going with a 50 footer instead of the 25' 'cause I'll end up keeping that one in the truck anyways. Do you think it should start at -10C(15F) on glowplugs alone?
|
It should, but I would plug it in anyway if it's possible. No point making your truck struggle in the cold if it doesn't have to.
|
As long as your block heater isn't more than 1000 Watts, and the connections are good, you should be fine.
If you had a 1500 Watt circulating block heater, that is a different story. |
