[QUOTE="Powerstroke Cowboy, post: 880682, member: 610"] If my oil temp is above 60 degrees I just jump in and drive it. There is no need to let it sit there and idle for a long time unless the windows are frosted up. If you take it easy and keep your rpms below 1500 and drive slow you will have no trouble. I agree completely. Think about the stiff oil that is in there. Start it like that and All of a sudden your cylinders are not getting lubed when they should be. SO they are running up and down on bare metal!! Or metal that is not lubed like it should. And when oil is that stiff your crank bearing will not be getting the lube that they need right away. I agree with you 100% Its flat out hard on everything. Not to mention the HEUI engine run OFF oil pressure. So now you are taking that cold oil and pressurizing it to over 1000 PSI on start then down to 900 and on down as it warms up. [/QUOTE]
