Re: Use of engine block heater away from the electrical outlet
I had a thermostat sieze up once. The engine overheated, pencil tip bypass or not.
It makes sense to have circulation in the block when the t'stat is closed, but I do not know when this practice started. Engines used to suffer a lot of eneven wear because of this very issue.
