It is necessary to warm up a new car before starting it. Here are the reasons why warming up is required: Lack of lubrication in a cold engine: After the car has been parked for a long time, the engine oil flows back into the oil pan at the bottom of the engine. Therefore, when starting the engine after a long period of inactivity (such as overnight), the upper part of the engine is without oil and lacks lubrication. It takes about 10 seconds after starting for the oil pump to circulate the oil to the parts of the engine that need lubrication the most, such as the pistons, connecting rods, and crankshaft. Effective vaporization of gasoline: Before the engine reaches its operating temperature (approximately between 90-110 degrees Celsius), the fuel supply system cannot effectively vaporize the gasoline completely due to the low temperature. When the gasoline is not vaporized and remains in a "wet" liquid state, it is difficult to ignite and start the engine.
