Re the lack of oil for 15 seconds, I was told by a master technician (motorcycles) that it is best to run the engine with some (sensible) revs to warm and circulate oil quicker as the longer it takes to circulate around the more wear is occuring.

I guess its finding a happy medium of not revving the nuts off it but circulating the oil as quickly as possible.

can't afford to use the heavy right foot these days
Been a habit I have had for years warming up for a few mins since I killed my Renault espace top end by just starting up and driving away.
