PARTS, cold weather plug.

Gentlemen: I just purchased a 2006 F250 Turbo Diesel. Love the truck. However, the previous owner did not have the jack or other tools to change a tire or lower the spare. I would rather not have to go to Ford for these. ANy thoughts on where to get these tools?

One other thing. I cannot find the cold weather plug for this Diesel. I assume it has one to keep the engine warmed in cold weather.

Thanks in advance for any information that you all can share.

If it has a block heater with the cord attached, the cord would be just inside the front passenger side area of the front bumper.

Look behind that front bumper. It will be a standard 110 volt outlet. Should have a cap on it.

As far as tools are concerned you might be able to go to a junkyard for that.

I have the stock jack for my Excursion if your interested, I don't know if the jack "handle" will work for lowering your tire. I believe in 04 or 05 Ford stopped putting the plug in the trucks to cut cost, the heater is there just not the plug...that cost's extra
