Default Winter oil change question?

Just changed oil and filter. Should I run to normal temperature before storage?

It would depend on whether you used H D oil or not

If I just changed it, the most I would do is start it, let it build up pressure to fill the filter and circulate fresh oil around the engine. I probably wouldn't let it run more than a minute.
