Thanks for the info. Do you work for Mocal? 'Cause you told me lot's more than they did! Really, 130 is not sufficient because oil is most effective at 200 and above, to prevent wear and damage under stress. I just think this device should allow oil temps to rise to or near 180 deg and then maintain that level, even when the cooler is doing it's job.It acted correctly under testing, but I can't figure-out why not in the car. Water t'stats work exactly the way this should, and do it whether idling or redlined. Can any members with oil t'stats only [not combined in sandwich adapters] tell me how well those work at achieving design temps? Thanks again Galaxy.
