Back in '72, two friends and I drove across America and back, starting in Upstate NY. The vehicle was a '68 Rambler American. After drives of 3-4 hours and more, the owner of said vehicle insisted we idle the car for 5 minutes or so, to allow it to relax (for lack of a better term), similar to a distance runner. The other two is thought he was nuts!! Comments???
