2003 Block Heater
#1
Just purchased a used 03'' Sable with 83K. I''m looking to add a block heater. Called the local Ford dealer and the part is like $35, but they want about $160 to install. Is this right? Is it possible to do myself?
I was also thinking about just slapping on an oil pan heater for $50.
What do you think the best option would be?
Thanks!

$80/hr for a 2 hour job. sounds about right. generally if you know what you need to do, and have the tools to do it, you can do it yourself. I don''t know the first thing about block heaters cause we don''t need them here in Texas. doesn''t get cold enough. I''m sure some other folks around here have been around them a little more than me and might know what you''ll need to do and may also know the pros and cons between the block heater and oil pan heater.
