Thinking on getting a block heater kit for this tundra. Have looked for installation vids on you tube, but nothing specific to this year model tundra. Fairly simple..........remove the plug and install the heater. Want to make sure I have located the right plug.
Here's a couple pics of the only plug I can find on the right side of the engine:

This plug is directly below the oil filter housing. I'm assuming this is not a plug into the oil system.
Anyone know if I'm right?

Ask FRT on the cnta forum he knows everything mechanical about snowmachines.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Thanks guys! Here's more to the back story, bought this used last April. Too late to use and didn't tinker with it all summer fall. Guy I bought from bought it new from Delta Power sports. Called Delta, gave them the guys name (he actually bought 2 new ones from them) and asked that they check their records to see if anything extra was installed by dealer. They said no.
Here is a pic of the same spot chickenminers pic shows:

As you can see there is something in that hole. Appears to me it was installed by dealer, or factory. However, I don't know where the wires lead to and I cannot find a plug, like a 110 volt normal plug sticking out anywhere on the cowl.
What, and where, should I be looking if there is already a block heater installed?
I'll try to get a better pic.

Wires coming off the plug go up and under the cowl.

Hmmm,
My Skandic is a 2021. Your 2019 might be old enuff that you would have to use the one mounted in
the water pump housing.

It should insert about 1.5” below the sensor and wires in the photo. If there isn’t a 1” looking plug just below that then you have to buy the water pump cover with the threaded hole in it. I know I had to get the cover for my 2016 but the 2020 came with the cover that had the threaded insert in it.

Thanks Hankit........I owe you one! So was at a buddies shop this afternoon and his teenage son and teenage buddy was there. Son's buddy works at Compeaus part time. He told me just about the same as your pic, Hank.
I got a bad feeling I'm going to have to buy that water pump cover!! mad
