220° oil temp, good or too warm?
hello all
I am wondering about proper operating temperature of my FE. When completely warmed up, the water temp is generally right around 200° and the oil temp 220°. No oil cooler. Is that acceptable or too warm? I have a 190 or 195° T/stat in there and am considering changing it to a 180°.
From reading other posts, it appears FE's generally like to run a bit on the warm side.
What are your thoughts?
thanks
