[QUOTE="George, post: 148332, member: 1980"] The neighbour came over this morning,while i was working on it.He looked at it and thought it was sure strange looking,went and looked at the new one,and it dawned on him what they had done.The person that owned the tractor before me,had cut a perfect hole in the centre of a frost plug,installed the block heater inside the frost plug,and then they had siliconed the frost plug back in.If you understand what i mean,i know it still doesn't make any sense to me,why someone would do that.We ended up having to cut the nut in half with a grinder,pushing the block heater back inside the motor.Then we popped the frost plug out,and then reached back inside and fished the block heater and the element out.Put the new block heater in,like a block heater is suppose to be installed.Plugged the tractor in this morning,and it started this afternoon.Don't usually use this tractor in the winter,but the tractor on the bale processor needs some rearend work.Thank You,for all the suggestion's.
