Message	I usually let the car warm up for a minute or so, just to let the oil slosh around, and I keep the revs under 2.5k or so until fully warm. _________________________________________________________________________________ Im n0t Sarcastic (Kenny): not to over do it, but you're certainly the source of high-class Z mods ZEngineer24: what do you mean by that? Im n0t Sarcastic: I just mean, your Z is one I really admire "The Z is the cause and the solution to all my problems" -- Me "If your car was my car, I'd think it's broken"
