    Warming Up?

    How long do you let you turbo warm up before driving it hard. What engine temp and what oil temp?

    Right. To state the obvious: when water temp is up to spec it means cooling system (mainly water jacketed cylinders) is good to go. When _OIL_ temp is where it should be it means crankshaft, camsahfts etc are good to go... . Oil temp should be where it's supposed to be before engine gets stressed.

    So..., when you think about it the temp guage it there to tell you when something goes wrong with the cooling system.

    The OIL temp tells you when the engine is warmed up OR something has gone wrong.

    Re: Warming Up?

    Oil temp @ 180 F minimum. By the time the oil gets to that point the water temp. has been @ operating temp. for some time. Oil flows at it's best above 180 F. When it starts pushing 250 F and beyond it's getting hot. No idling warm up though, just drive slowly until warm. A warm up while idling can damage the convertors and/or cause unnecessary carbon deposits in the c.c.
