Re: Coolant leak - mechanic changed out block-heater. Sound right to you?
block heaters leaking are very common, as others have stated. And also as stated, they are completely pointless in non-freezing weather, and even in freezing weather, it need to be pretty dang cold to be necessary.
One thing that helps greatly is having the right oil for the conditions.
I won't make suggestions on what temps you should start considering it, since I live in a pretty mild temp area, I don't have personal experience with it....but its pretty dang cold, thats for sure.
