Also built into the DME are tables for cold power and warm power. Cold will not allow as much as a safety measure.

A short warm up is basic SOP for most car guys. If for nothing else to make sure no warning lights come up or no surprise leaks occur.


There is no legitimate reason you need to be or should be an obstacle on the road.
Thank you for your input. I lean more to what you write and feel that if push comes to shove I can go a little heavier on the peddle. The car is garaged so even in Winter it does not get that cold.

Thanks to all for your responses which puts my pea brain at ease.
