Throw in the gear, it's warming up again (9)
I believe the answer is:
reheating
'warming up again' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'throw in the gear' is the wordplay.
'throw' is an anagram indicator.
'in'+'the'+'gear'='inthegear'
'inthegear' anagrammed gives 'REHEATING'.
'it's' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for reheating that I've seen is " Perhaps preparing leftovers".)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
