[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 531315, member: 52972"] You probably have a failed thermostat that failed in the open position, so your engine is never getting warmed to the proper operating temperature. The only real problem with a cold engine is a waste of gas. It won't hurt anything and won't leave you stranded on the side of the road (unless you run out of gas :P) But with the cost of gas these days I would look to getting it fixed ASAP. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
