Block heater position?????

[choll]

I just bought a block heater, NAPA # 6053180, the instructions say to face the heating element at 6 oclock. Which way is 6oclock facing the front of the truck or the rear.

I just put in 2 weeks ago. Drivers side,middle plug ,facing up 12 oclock postion.

I believe the clocking notation is how you view the heating element as installed.

So a 6-o'clock position should be straight downward.

Was it hard to install? I ordered one Friday and should be here monday.

When I installed mine I faced the element up or 12:00
Wasn't bad except draining all of the coolant out
