A mystery oil indeed
Hi trullac
I had this same problem when I lived in OHIO. The best advice I got was to use 1 quart of Marvel Mystery oil, with each oil change during cold weather.
Being a Chevy Man, Chevy's have quite a bit of lifter noise until they warm up & with the Marvel Mystery oil, it seemed to quiet them down faster.
I was reading a while back that some of the High milage engine oils, also showed good resistance to the cold weather foaming.
Good luck
