Long time ago managed to run up 0.3 on the hobbs trying to start an engine after a night at sub zero temperatures at 7000ft. Probably did more damage to the engine than many hours at cruise. So there is enough oil pressure in a cold engine just when being turned over by the battery (which held out superbly!) Asked for some additional instruction on starting cold engines after that
