Reduced rpm in Cessna 172 after starting cold & dark - Advice?

Amazing. Thanks for checking. But to confirm, did you start cold and dark? I do see your fuel flow meter is full, unlike mine, and also your EGT is not bottomed out like mine is. And it’s colder outside today it seems!
Is it possible I just need to run the engine for much longer time? I had mine at least 5 minutes going and still EGT was bottomed out.

BTW how to post full res screenshot? Mine sized down, not helpful when I’m asking others to scrutinize my cockpit.
