Electric Cord for Plug In?
Hello Everone,
I will be plugging my 7.3 in this winter at home when necessary. I am going to purchase a 25 ft outdoor cord today. Will the 14 gauge cord work or should I buy 12 gauge cord?
Thanks

You dont run the block heater all nite. Get a heavy duty timer and set it to come on about 2.5 or 3 hrs before you start the engine. This will not use much money and will definitely save the crank time on the starter.
