Warming up the engine?

Yes, it's fine, so long as you take it easy. Just accelerate up to speed the same rate as the rest of the traffic, and keep the revs below 6-7k. It's not a question of speed.

Same here. Ha!

Also, the first thing I learnt after being on this forum is that YC knows everything and, therefore, is god. Thou shalt not question....but apparently flaming is OK.

Lol!
I don't! And I'm not! I have been and am often wrong, question and consider everything until it makes sense.

Something that is without question though YC is that being a Yorkshireman, if there is a cheaper way of doing something, you will find it and if there is a way to make something last longer, you are already doing it!
