Subject: Re: [MBZ] how to check block heater
That stupid Suburban pissed me off just a little while ago. So I pulled
into the local Walmart to fill it up with 78 worth of diesel because
they are still selling for 2.59 everywhere else is 2.66-2.69, I get in
it to start, click, nothing. I know exactly what it is, those side post
battery connectors tend to loosen up after a while, so I go to open the
hood and it wont open. Crap. Sometimes it will stick but if I slam the
drivers door, it pops open. No suck luck today. I finally got it to
open after about 5 min of messing with it. Jiggled the bat cable on one
of the batteries, and it fired right up.

those things are.
Well, it's probably at least 400 W. And it can't be more than
1800 W unless it has a 20 Amp plug on the end. So somewhere
between 8 and 40 ohms.
