So we are saying that warm up is where most wear occurs right. And that cold oil provides a no wear hydrodynamic wedge til the oil heats up right.
Now I'm not talking about below freezing temps. Let's say 70 degree ambient.
So wouldn't a thicker oil cold like a 10w vs a 0w keep a hydrodynamic wedge longer as the oil warms up enough to activate the anti-wear additives.
Because if we believe that cold oil creates a positive oil wedge then doesn't common sense say keeping the oil thick yet pump able will lessen wear vs a thinner when cold oil?
