    As a newbie, I asked a couple of Drivers of tour buses, they seemed to think it to be a good idea to let my 8V idle normal for a couple minutes at least to allow belts,lube to "stretch" just like I should before working out! Just a thought

    I don't remember exactly where I heard this, but the word was that most busses which have had crankshaft damage was due to going to high idle too quickly. 2-3 minutes is the time I use.
