I was on an " Oil " forum , some time ago . It stressed the issue of a cold start .

Best I remember , I think it said most of the engine wear occurs during a cold start , when oil is not circulating properly .

I am guessing the engine will last longer , the quicker it comes up to " tstat temperature " . ( Of course fuel burn is probably more efficient when the engine is at normal operating temperature . )

I have seen many diesel trucks with methods of controlling winter air flow to the radiator .

Any way to make it adjustable for your car ?

God bless
