Rod for Elevated Engine RPM

A highly controversial model – a rod that presses the car’s accelerator pedal by bracing itself against the dashboard.The rod is screw-adjustable, so you can set any engine speed you want. Purpose:Car manufacturers generally advise against letting an engine idle for long periods while the vehicle is stationary.The classic winter routine — “start the engine, go scrape the ice, the cabin will warm up meanwhile” — doesn’t actually work as people think. The cabin is usually heated by an electric PTC heater (if the car has one), but the engine itself barely warms up at idle. Manufacturers recommend sitting down, starting the engine, fastening your seatbelt, and driving off gently. This rod is my workaround.By setting it to maintain around 1500 RPM, I simulate slow driving from the moment the engine starts. This helps warm up both the engine and the cabin. During that time (about five minutes), I either walk the dog or clear snow and ice from the car — and then the car is ready to go. The 3M
