Block heater

[johnsonis15]

Hi, I bought my car in the summer, and now it getting a little cold out, I looked for my block heater plug and couldn't find it. Where should I look? and would a vancouver Car come without a block heater? 1998 Civic SI.

I really don't know the answer to that question... but I'm a little on the iffy side on your car model. I'm pretty darn sure Honda never made a '98 Civic Si...

He's in Canada, with a Canadian spec Si. The Canadian spec Civic Si = The US Civic EX. Like the 6th gen US Civic EX, the 6th gen Canadian spec Si was also made from 96-00. The US spec Si = The Canadian spec SiR.

As for the block heater, I really have no idea whether a civic sold in Vancouver, BC should have it included. I do know that if it does not have one, you should be able to order a block heater from Honda and have it installed, as they are available seperatly, at least they are here in the US. Sorry I can't be of more help at the moment, but if I figure anything out I'll let you know.
