[QUOTE=BTW, anyone know the cheapest way to monitor temps (oil, tranny, axle, etc.)?[/QUOTE]
Most of the dash mounted screen tuners can display OBDII info like this. So does the Scangauge and similar devices. Axle temp is probably not and stock sensor. I'd just get a cheap Laser type tempature gauge and just point it at what ever I want to know the tempature of....tires, diff, radiators, etc...
I run an engine block heater, oil pan heater and trans pan heater on my ZX2. In cold weather, if I don't use them, I can see as much as a 4mpg difference in my single commute mpg. If your gonna get heaters, I'd heat everything to get the best possible results. I also run my heaters year round. I got 10 dollar stick on heaters for my oil pans and they work great. I start out around 100 degrees on all my fluids
