The oil temp on CSX 2252 runs about 220 degrees on a warm day of 90 degrees outside, with the water temp at 185 degrees. On a cooler day, say 65 degrees outside, the oil temp is at 200 degrees and water temp is 160 degrees. This Cobra has no oil cooler installed, just an electric fan (15 inch). The wimpy, single blade original fan I took off and put it on the shelf. It's basically useless in Arizona!
