does anyone have a block heater on 98 accord l4 stick?

[xlino]

Hey. I move to north dakota and weather here is bad!! I have a hard timr trying to crank the car up. I hear people talking about block heater. But do they have that for a 98 accord 2.3l? I saw an Instalation instruction online but it says is for a 2001 accord. Does anyone have one in there car? Where did you get it? What do you suggest for the cold weather. This is my only car and is daily driver to work.

You do not need a block heater.

What do you suggest I do for cold weather?

I suggest you start it.

Define "hard time cranking the car". Are you saying it always takes a few tries to start the car when it's cold?

Runs around $80 brand new, which amazingly you can still get from Honda

Well, whenever I try to turn on the car it doesnt crank over. I hold the key in the On for like 10 seconds and you hear it trying to start. then I wait a minute or two and try again then it starts. But I hear ticking only when is cold.

Do you have one on your car? Would you happen to have a part number?
