Ill keep this all in mind this winter back when i was useing the 50 weight i sat through the first winter alot longer than a minute not much but still it was normally taking me upwards of four minutes to drive 350 feet to the freeway.
I dont want to burn a new motor the oil pickups not a problem any more.

I guess I'm one of the few people who has self control when driving my STI ( 3rd one without issues).
Can't people just keep rpm below 3k and load below 0psi or just I'm vacuum when warming up the car? I see alot of people just WOT right after 30 secs of startup. |

I thought this might be a fun addition to the conversation. I have a bunch of broken pickup pics in my blog. You can see them here
