I have a major beef with the logic of "You should have used the search function!!!!" I don't know how many times I have been searching for an answer to something on google and I get pointed toward a forum thread where the OP asks essentially the same question(s) I have. And instead of receiving information, usually that person will get berated and mocked by everyone on the forum for asking such a dumb/common/simple/unpopular/whatever question and that person will be told to use the search feature. The problem I have with this is that I got to this page in the first place by searching for my problem! Do you people not realize that this thread is now going to show up in future searches for oil coolers and oil temp issues? You might as well stop berating the OP and just start talking about useful stuff that people might actually be able to use in the future. It looks like this thread has taken a turn toward the 'useful' direction but I'm speaking generally. There is very little resource used for these threads so just make the best of it and stop making someone feel bad for asking questions, and keep in mind that future searchers will be seeing what we're talking about right now.

/end mini-rant.
