Redneck Ed· Jan 2023

Overview

This video pits a $35 magnetic block heater against a heat lamp on a Massey Ferguson GC1723E, with actual infrared temperature measurements taken at multiple engine points after 30, 60, and 120 minutes of run time. The creator shares percentage-based results for both methods and explains why he skipped the factory block heater. Best for GC1723E owners weighing cold-weather starting options on a budget.

Posted by the Redneck Ed channel, an owner-operator sharing hands-on tests from personal experience with the tractor.
