I know that the FD should be heated up and cooled down before and after driving.

Is it safe to drive straight on a cold start as long as you keep the revs low until it has warmed up?

Cheers

Drive it like your running in a new engine for the first 5-10mins, at least until the temp guage is showing normal running temp.

Hi Stu,

Keep it under 3,000 revs and you will be OK
