Since diesel is not a solvent, does this line of thinking don’t apply to diesel engines? Also, what should be the procedure if I absolutely have to floor the car less than a mile away from home in my commute? Is it worse to let it warm up at idle, or floor it still cold?
his hair is so satisfying ._.
What about motorbikes that are made to rev high? I have a 125cc 4 stroke (efi) and as I leave my school I have a long uphill.
I trust the engineers were smart enough to make the vehicle idle in such a way it is properly lubricated and warms evenly and predictably. If they can build a system smart enough to pass warm coolant through the transmission and oil pan to help warming, I think they can figure out oil pump and idler control…
could u explain us advantages and disadvantages in bore and strokes ratio in some future video please
Does this change for Turbocharged engines?
I don’t know many people that let their car idle to warm up in order to get it to temp and prevent damage… most people start it and let it idle to help clear the frost on the windshield and any condensation inside so that they can see, in order to drive it. And some just like getting into a warm car. Granted, that’s not getting the engine up to temp the fastest way possible, so it’s probably a little more damaging than getting in and taking an easy drive right away, but if you can’t see, it doesn’t matter. By the time it gets to that point, you’ve probably got heat in the engine and you’ve done any damage that you’re going to, because it had already been idling through the low temp time period. Should someone get in an rev the car in neutral or park at, say, 1500 rpm or so, to try to get it to warm up faster? That’s really the only thing that helps those of us in much colder climates. Heated garage COULD help, if it weren’t for all of the salt on the roads during the snowy months. That just accelerates corrosion.
I live in Canada when some morning is -25c and the windchill makes it feel like -29. I park my car outside. I let her warm up a bit before I start driving. Frozen oil doesn’t do me any good
