Why? is it really hot there all the time??? if your engine never gets to operating temp then you could do more damage than good.

Yes Nial it does get pretty hot down here. In the summer time around 100 and the humidity kills you lol.. I alway's wait for the car to get to operating temp before taking it out. I normally run the main fan all the time but every once in a while i'll turn the other one on when it's hot out..

Thanks for the comments everyone!! I'll try to have more up soon..

Its not advisable to do this.....let the thermostat do its job...the fans will come on when needed.....If the engine runs below its recommended operating temp the oil will not heat up correctly and you will do damage to the engine.......also letting your car sit at idle to warm up isnt a good idea either....low oil pressure in the system will again cause high engine wear.
