Oil lubricates best in the range of 180 to 212 degrees F (82 to 100 degrees C). Below this range, the oil isn't hot enough to burn off volatile contaminants, and above 230° F (110 degrees C), it starts to thin out and oxidize. Our sandwich plates return oil to the engine when it's below 180 degrees, allowing the engine to warm up quickly. Once warm, the thermostat opens, and the oil flows to the cooler to keep temperatures within the ideal range.
