Cold mornings don't have to mean sluggish starts and long idles. This custom fit block heater warms the coolant so your engine fires up smooth and reaches operating temperature quicker. Hit the road faster knowing your engine is ready to work.
On icy mornings, even the toughest engine can crank slow and sound weak. Cold metal parts grind dry, and thick oil makes your starter work overtime. This Zerostart block heater pre-warms the coolant so your engine turns over quick, runs smoother right away, and avoids the wear that shortens engine life.
Universal heaters can be a headache because they often require slight modification, but this one is made for your vehicle's engine. It installs in the frost plug, the exact spot designed for heat transfer. That means no trial and error or modifying parts to fit, just a clean install that works the way it should.
Rated at 400 watts at 120 volts, this heater delivers steady warmth through your coolant. That extra heat not only makes starts more reliable, it also helps your engine reach operating temperature faster so you can hit the road without a long idle.

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a quick look at the Zerostart custom fit frost plug style engine block heater. Now this is going to fit a wide range of Ford and Mercury vehicles, and I do have a lot of information there for you on that graphic, but those vehicles are going to be equipped with the 3.0 liter, 4.0 liter or 4.2 liter V6 engines and select 7.3 liter V8 turbo diesel engines. Those include the Ford F Series trucks, the F-150 through the F-550, and then the Free Star Mercury Monterey, Mustang, Probe, Taurus, Tempo, and Ford vans from years 1986 to 2009. Now, my recommendation is to go through our vehicle fit guide here at etrailer.com, enter the year, make and model of your vehicle and any other questions that it might ask, and our fit guide will confirm if this will work for your particular vehicle or if we have something comparable that will work for you.
So as you know, cold mornings don't have to mean slow starts or long warmups because this custom fit block heater is going to get your engine ready before you even turn the key. By warming up the coolant ahead of time, this is going to help your engine fire up smoothly and reach operating temperature faster. So you're going to be able to hit the road without waiting around. When those temperatures do drop, engines can struggle. Thick oil, cold metal parts and dry starts are gonna put extra strain on your starter and reduce your engine's life.
So that's where this block heater is going to come in. It's gonna take care of that issue by pre-warming the coolant so your engine's going to turn over quickly, run smoother right away, and avoid that unnecessary wear rather. Now, unlike universal heaters that often need tweaking or extra parts, as we saw, this one is built specifically for your vehicle's engine. So it's going to install right in the frost plug. That's the spot designed for efficient heat transfer.
So it's gonna be a clean hassle free setup. This is gonna give you 400 watts of steady heat at 120 volts and it's gonna give you reliable warmth that's gonna keep your coolant ready to go. And this silicone cord is removable from the heater. So if you ever damage the cord, you're not going to have to replace the entire heater, you'll just have to replace the cord. So that's an added benefit here.
And also, this is a nice touch, this does come with a tethered cap here to cover up that three prong plug when it's not in use. So it's going to keep those prongs in good shape. So this is going to fit a 3/4 of an inch NPT bore diameter. If you happen to have any other questions about this heater or anything else that we carry here at etrailer.com, don't hesitate to reach out to us. We do want to make sure that you're getting exactly what you want and need. Well, again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
