Ok.. I have no idea if this is a stock thing or not but when I lift up my hood.. tied in a bunch on top of my cars right front wheel well is this male cord (two prongs and the ground prong)... the cord is kinda bunched up and held together with a twist tie or whatever and then it leads down under the engine (looks like it goes somewhere near the oil pan) what on earth is this? I don't think it's an engine block heater cuz the previous owner stored the car every winter... any idea what this might be? It's really ugly so if I don't need it then it's definatly gone... thanks

Sure sounds like a block heater to me...there isn't anything else in the engine bay that looks like that, unless you left a power tool in there or something.

 

lmao... ok.. don't have any clue why it would have one
But I'll get under there and have a look... thanks

....Ummmm, I would tend to think all cars sold in Canada would have block heater in them!!!! Mine has one too...cord still neatly coiled up on the passenger fender!!!!

 

Rarest option in 94,out of 180k F-bodies 24 had block heaters!!!!!

HERE


Mine has one,how much more is this worth to a collector NOT !!!!

 

lmao.. true! I never even thought of the Canadian ones comming stock with the block heater... thats kinda cool... and ugly!

I might want to keep it so I'll just find a way to dress it up

Thanks guys

Trevor

 

all canadian f bodies had block heaters and some american f bodies that were closer to our border/northern climate had them from the factory. called the winter package i think.

 

OPTION CODE KO5 24 units produced in 94 !!!

Check the link!!

 

really? all the f bodies in my area have it. even the three 94s i know of personally.

i see the link is for camaros. the three i know of are birds.

 

Yep, I got it, damned if i'll ever use it.

 

That page has only the production numbers for the United States I believe, or all Canadian models did not fall under the OPTION CODE KO5 and did not get counted as such.

 

that would explain it better

 

Okay !! Thanks for clearing that up!!
