Using Idle Control Knob on Startup - Proper Engine Care?

Does your Mitsubishi L300 make a strange noise? Need wheel alignment specs?

"if its so hard to pull on your knob, put some greese/wd40 on the shaft and pull in and out, that should make it happen for you."

mine's been missing and smoking lately on startup when it's cold out, so unfortunately it does need warming up, but I have a feeling my timing is to blame more than the cold, although I'm sure it'll get worse as it gets colder

Yeah with not even dipping below 0 here I'm not too worried, I just give it enough time to get some warm air on the windows so I can see and I'm off... I go easy on the gas pedal until the temp gauge registers some warmth :-)
