Start car and drive. Use a lower gear than you would for a given speed at operating temp, but be gentle. I tend to stay below 4,000 rpm. Idling is the most wear and tear an engine sees after cold start, so idling cold is a huge no no. Then engine needs to rev to make pressure. |

Temp at Gale Crater on Mars is currently only -19C... We are on the wrong rock it seems.

But sometimes I start the car and move it to the side on the road to shuffle my other cars in the driveway. It may sit there for few minutes idling. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk |

You think a rad with no airflow is going to drop coolant temp enough to drop oil temperatures?
