I would definitely think 40F, and possibly even more like 45-50F The thing to do is check it around 50F and see how the engine oil temps look. If they're still getting to 180F without having to driving spirited, then you're probably ok. 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

Good morning kids. The countdown to getting sick is officially on! There are two people in my office and at least one in an adjacent office spreading germs.

Flying first class helps take the edge off the pain and tormentof travel.

Unless first class gets me to my destination faster than coach, my cheap *** will continue to sit in the back. Unless it's a flight over 4 hours, then I want the legroom.

I never pay for it -- my many miles on Delta gets me bumped about 1/3 of the time.
