ok so i bought a block heater for a 94 delsol dohc vtec, aka 92-95 b series.


the instructions (PG1 http://img.photobucket.com/alb...1.jpg PG2 http://img.photobucket.com/alb...2.jpg) show the port to install in the front by the #1 Exhaust header, this port does not exist on my non obd b16...

my question is, has anyone with a bseries ef installed a factory style block heater, and is this the correct port?

block heater p/n: 08T44-SR0-100G - Heater Engine

for those of you wondering i ordered it from majestic honda.

the plug is for shure there, its what lets you drain the block, all b series and d series have them

 

DRAGON BALL Z! blankets!

 

ya its a big 19mm plug in the front of the block just under the exhaust manifold

 

what does a block heater do

yea u like that pimp sh*t

block heater basicly warms the coolant in the block in cold weather making it easier to start and better for the motor.

Dee Ta Deeeee!1

 

so yea, i just finished installing, took me about 30 min, swapped out my alternator tonight, so i finished that up before pwning the heater..

very straight forward install, no problems, just had to move my O2 sensor wire retainer out of the way, and move my 1/2 size rad about 6" to the pass side.

other than the rush of coolant that spiewed at me when i removed the drain. It was fun and very gratifying.

 

^ lol sounds like you have a "special bond" with that car

Whatever pleases you

I remember in HS I had a POS Dodge Shadow I picked up for a few bills. Every morning I let a little space heater heat the cabin. Damn thing never headed up. In hindsight, this would have been the hot setup...(excuse the pun).


BTW, price?

You could say that, i've had it for about 6-7 years, had the b16 in for almost 5

 

finished results:


Also needed to replace the inner door panel weather shield, Drivers side is discontinued from honda just so you all kno. I used Ultra Grey RTV sealer to stick it on.

Hint: Use a putty knife with a heat gun or hair drier to make the factory adheasive come off easier.
