Notes:
Start your engine easier and warm your cab faster in cold weather with this immersion heater. Heating your engine fluid keeps it from thickening and freezing, resulting in more reliable start-ups and smoother operation altogether. It also lessens the workload and extends the life of your vehicle's battery. And because starting your engine when it's warm creates less condensation in the engine block than starting it when it's cold, your engine will get better initial fuel vaporization, which causes fewer emissions and less pollution.
This immersion heater installs by screwing into your oil pan or your engine block. The power cord on the heater is removable so that you won't need to buy a whole new heater if the cord gets damaged. The cord can be routed through your grille for easy access to a 120-volt outlet or extension cord. If needed, a longer or shorter cord (sold separately) can be purchased to better fit your application. Make sure the heating element is fully submerged in the oil or coolant before plugging it in.

It simply installs in the oil pan or engine block and submerges in coolant or oil.

Works great! I built a preheater out of 1" pipe and used your heater with a tiny thermostat for heating the fuel for my converted hot air furnace which burns used motor oil in my workshop.
Hi' I bought this heater for my snowblower motor. (22Hp. twin Briggs & Sratton) I just bought a 1/2" x 3/8" bushing (motor drain plug is 3/8"), 2- 1/2" unions. And there I GO. Thank You! & Okee-Dokee I'm in busness.
Review from a similar Immersion in Oil Pan Heater
The heater works great. Heated 8 quarts of 50W racing oil to 230deg.F in about 40min. in a dry sump tank.
I need to preheat the straight 50W oil prior to startup on a cold engine.
Review from a similar Immersion in Oil Pan Heater
I have recently purchased this product as an experiment and not for its intended use. I purchased this product to heat oil on a small homemade quench tank. So far so good! I have not been able to get an exact temperature of the oil but it works for what I intended it to be. The slight problem was the threads. If you purchase this product for any fluids under pressure you may have to rechase the threads. I could not find any couplers to fit over the 1” NPT. Where I do not have fluids under pressure I was able to get one full turn out of the threads with no leakage.
