Initial rev up from cold 850

posted by  someone claiming to be ksg on  Mon Dec 13 06:49 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Cars have had a fast idle at cold start for about 50 years. It overcomes friction from cold oil and helps warm up quicker. In the old days there was a thermally operated cam on the throttle shaft which kept it open.
