3 minute warm up is really short for initial start to takeoff power. If you're talking a quick turn-around it may be OK since the engine never really cooled off, but after an overnight that's a big thermal shock to the engine (compressor rub/permanent performance loss - in an extreme case it can cause a surge). Five minute warm up is the minimum I'd recommend.
We lease the engines...
