I bought a block heater and plan to use it this winter in an attempt to improve mileage. I imagine others have tried this and I wonder what results you got? How long do you tuen it on for? There must be a point at which the engine doesnt get any warmer so leaving it on all night would waste $. Last winter my mileage was down to 28 at times.

My first bar disappears after around 110 miles...
