interesting! damn i idle until the light goes off everytime i drive. Maybe thats why i only get about 275 miles to the tank(until the light). I dont even drive that hard. LOL

 

What they are saying is true; drive GENTLY until everything is warmed up.
I usually start the engine and idle 30 seconds. This gives me time to start the MP3 player and buckle seat belt.

The one about the oil... Hmmm.. how can I say this: Oil breaks down! This is especially true for the dino, or regular, motor oils. Fresh oil is healthy oil and good filter is very important.


Wasteful? I recycle your used oil.

 

these days my car's rolling down the driveway while i fire up
the engine and just drive off (gently and slow that is).
