Built for Real Farm Work
Ford’s 3000-9000 series tractors were the workhorses of American agriculture, powering everything from small family operations to large commercial farms. The smaller 3000 and 4000 models handle specialty crops and general farm work, while the 5000 series tackles medium-duty tasks, and the powerful 7000-9000 series handle heavy-duty field work where reliable cold-weather starting can make or break your schedule.
Made to Last
This heater is built to handle the temperature swings and harsh conditions around farm equipment. The cup-style design seals tight in your block’s frost plug opening and distributes heat evenly through the coolant passages. The heating element is designed for years of seasonal use without burning out or losing effectiveness.
Good to Know
Installation involves removing an existing frost plug and threading in this heater—most mechanics can handle it with basic tools. Make sure your coolant system is drained to the level of the frost plug before starting. The one-foot cord works great for shop installations, but you can upgrade to the longer GE24C replacement cord if you need more reach to your power source.
