Perhaps with your extensive and pontifical experience you cold summarize
the findings of Shell, Chevron, and TCM of the percentage of wear that
occurs in the first 30 seconds of cold (ie, below 40 degrees) starts?



May I humbly pontificate that proper starting of engines (incorporating
the, appropriate for the temps and engine, oil) at 25F will NOT impact
their respective TBOs to any statistically significant degree.


Well, your holiness, no one said anything about TBO.


I see what you mean. I intended to convey the idea that no damage would
occur to the engine resulting from the cold-ish starts within the time
period to overhaul.
Do find some inner peace, my son ;-)) (the holy-ness kicking in).
