It flows even at zero —very much below the freezing point of water. In the average engine there are twenty or more fine oil channels no thicker than the waist of the “hour-glass” shown here. Through these narrow channels oil must flow—quickly. Many oils hesitate until they are thoroughly warmed-up by engine action. Then it is too late.
