Start the car and before it comes off high idle, you should be granny driving under light load and between 1500-3000 rpm until your oil is up to temp. The key here is oil pressure.


Sorry, I was saying bye to my family. Hahaha. I normally crank and go. Personally highest wear would be redline with cold oil. That is all I really worry about.
