block heater
Does anyone know of a block heater that will work on a 3YM20? apparently Yanmar does not make them. Also where on the engine would it be installed?
Thanks

Re: block heater
How far north are you? And do you have a closed cooling system? You can add a HotStart unit to some closed cooling systems. Or a 25W incandescent light bulb in a drop light under a foil blanket works on small diesels in temperate climates.
