When I was a young guy in the winter you would pull out the choke, pump
the gas and when the engine started you pulled out the throttle to rev
up the engine for faster warmup.  You went back in the house for a cup a
coffee and then it was nice and cozy to drive in the sub-zero weather.
After they took out the throttle knob guys would put a brick (not
floored!) on the gas pedal to rev up the engine.
