Ambient temp and loss in power

Nooree01

So I just installed an oil cooler and after running the car i noticed the ambient temp rising up to 150 then its empty so my guess was the cooler is near the sensor, i was planning on leaving the sensor where it is, my question is does the ecu pull timing or anything if the temp are above a certain temp. If I need to relocate it how would I got about doing that?

I have a 2011 with a 34 row Z1 cooler.

You are saying that your outside ambient temperature reading is 150F after the cooler install? Which oil cooler did you install? What is you oil temperature when the other temp is reading 150F?

The ECU will start to pull timing when the oil temp gets to 240F.

This 150F temp. Is it the outside temps, or the inlet temps to the throttle bodies?

I have a 19 row stillen my oil temps are at 200 max but the ambient temps (outside temp) sensor is the one acting up

If ya'lls ambient temps are acting up then you have the cooler far too close to the sensor. Move either the cooler or the sensor - sensor should have plenty of spare wire length to play with if you get in there and start mucking around.
