Yeah thinking about it again, unless it were high end delivery, its simply not worth the extra tip. Even if warm start ups aren't as bad on the engine. Thanks for the rplies guys

Thanks for the quick reply, that's what I read through also: cold starts are the major cause of wear. But I didn't see much on simply starting the engine during its ideal warm conditions. My TSX has 160-170k miles and still running strong, I dont want to pick up a job that will weaken its...
