Subject:      coolant heater no workie
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I have one of those factory stock heater that are on
the left side of the engine comparmnet and has the
digital read out and display up front. follow?
(eberspacher??) It is a gasoline coolant heater.

So, i can get it to turn on, the pump to cycle and
some white exhaust to come out of the pipe. Does that
mean it is working? Is there an external way to know
it is working? How long will it take for the coolant
to be warm? How much power will it take from my
battery (how long can i run it w/o killing the
battery?)

thanks
matthew
