[QUOTE="Davy Crockett, post: 143872, member: 367"] How long do you usually let your cold vehicle warm up ? My wife has our garage so full of old treasures that I won't be getting my pickup in this winter. Having been a Chevy man all my life it was second nature to slip my ford into neutral to get fluid moving but it doesn't seem to make a difference with the ford. Do ford pickup automatic transmissions circulate fluid when idling in neutral ? I looked online and all I read is that it does more harm than good to idle and warm up these newer gas vehicles. WTH did I unlearn ? [URL]http://www.popularmechanics.com/cars/a19086/warming-up-your-car-in-the-cold-just-harms-engine/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
