Oil Temps after install
Vipor
You mentioned your oil temps being very low and outside temps being low. Are you not concened about over cooling. Oil viscosity is dependant upon temperature. I would think that the oil being too cool you are not getting proper lubrication as it is too thick. The same for over temp on oil the oil becomes to thin and starts breaking down quicker. For me the optimum oil temps would be between 220 and 240 this is where the oil has its best shear factor for best lubrication properties. Tell straight up if I am on the right path with this Bill |
