Good thinking, tho

It almost like having a block heater with the difference with and without. Our winter or pretty mild here so it not that big of deal. I run it like that all year round. It does make it a car that only you can drive though. You have to feather the throttle with one foot and brake with the other or it will die until it gets warm up. Which as cold as it is there might not make it worth it but the ECU in the woo is fine with it. Good luck.
