I live in central Canada, and temperatures reach as low as -30C. Just this week, it’ll be -20C overnight and I always park my car outside. From what people have told me I should idle for 10 minutes when it’s extremely cold, and then drive off. What should I really be doing?

    I warm my truck up for about 10 minutes but it’s an old carbed beast and wants nothing to do with moving until there’s some heat in the motor. I let my car warm up for 5-10 minutes but that’s so I can see. If I can see I wait until my AFR stabilizes(30-60 seconds), then I take off. If you can’t guess my car is heavily modded.
