until it happens it's not worth worrying about. Like I said I fixed mine with $5 worth of JB weld but they do make a kit that can go inside and permanently fix it but it has to come out and apart for that.
Thanks, I'll have to keep an eye out for that.

Mine would always come on, I would check it and the radiator would be full.
The 600 watt block heater is a poor excuse for a coolant heater, this is a coolant heater:

Honestly, the coolant does seem to be low as it is now even hot. Maybe we'll have to call the previous owner and ask what coolant he was using. I read in the (mostly gasoline related) manual that it should use DexCool and an employee at AutoZone told me the same, but just in case...

I'm not sure what kind of wattage the current heater is. I have to fix or get the cable fixed though, one of the wires in it just frayed. But I may change the heater and add more heaters to it, Diesel Dave style.
