Ok I over heard some guys talking about how they have to warm up their cars. There isn't many things i know, but one thing i do know for sure is, warming up a car is a bad thing. Car engine belive me or not were never made to sit idle.

that's true, it is best for the engine to always be under load and constantly cruising. if all cars were treated like that, then engines would never die, but this isnt a perfect world. but have you ever noticed how crappy the engine runs when cold? no power and bad response. the car runs better with all the fluids up to running temp -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition
