Engine Block Heater For Cummins Turbo Diesel
I know it's only June, but I am now the proud owner of a 2007 Dodge Ram with the 5.9L Cummins Turbo Diesel. I live in upstate NY and it can get very cold here in the winter. My question is, is there an engine block heater on these new diesels? I can't find the plug anywhere. I know the 1995 GMC Diesel pickup I had, came right from the factory with a block heater.

You can also buy the plug and wire from Cummins or one of their dealers cheaper than you can get it from Dodge ($12 vs $35+). On the 5.9 engine the heater is on the passenger side of the engine near the oil filter. Take off the plastic cap by unscrewing it, then put the appropriate end in and screw it down. THen just route the wire up to the bumper and tie it off a few places and your done.

Or you could totally re-route the plug like demon and I did ...
