Proceed to check it at 45F and then again at 40F until you notice the engine oil having trouble getting fully warm (~180F). Note the temperature at which that begins to be a problem and then plan on using your block off plate any time it gets colder than that
Done deal, thank you man, Im gonna print this info out for future reference. Very useful. I'll be throwing you a rep point tomorrow morning. Thanks man.
