So I got my Berk Test Pipes installed this afternoon along with an oil change. I screwed up and didn't get the right gaskets and have an exhaust leak.
The problem and I can't think of or if it would relate in any way is my oil temp is higher now. Before I changed the oil my avg temp was 185-190. After running a few errands my temp is above 220. I haven't been driving hard at all, I've actually been driving slower since I have the exhaust leak and won't be able to get a new gasket till Tues. I'm using the same oil as was in the engine before Mobil1 synthetic, but with a Purolator filter(larger one like AK) instead of the Mobil1 filter. The air temp today is also 20 degrees colder since it's supposed to rain tonight. I haven't seen temps this high since I was still using Ester oil. ![]() |
