How does the battery cable hook up to the preheater relay?

el6147 · Feb 7, 2014

same principal as a starter solenoid.

power from the battery to the relay then from the
relay to the manifold heater and a activation wire
from the switch or seperate push button switch to
the solenoid .

generally you fasten your battery power source for
the relay to the same lug on the starter solenoid
that supplies the power from the battery

Probably a Perkins diesel?
Install a coolant heater from this company.

I think he's talking about Thermo-start. Very useful on a Perkins in addition to a block heater or when it isn't real cold.

I realized the plan is to restore heating to the intake manifold .
Heaing the coolant is Better than heating the manifold .

There seems to be some sort of bizzar mindset however . Where operators won't use a block heater unless glowplugs, thermal starts, ether and pull starting fails.
