reducing warm up time and increacing cold day running temp
#9
If you're covering up the radiator and it's helping the warmup period, your thermostat is broken. Usually the slow warm up is because people turn on the heaters on full and the fan on full which is enough to cool the entire engine as they don't put out much heat, hence the coolant heater plugs.
