Can someone please set me straight on this.
Given summer time driving (70-95 degrees temps outside): If a 914 is running 20w-50 oil vs. 10w-30 oil, I know that the 30 weight is thinner oil, but which oil would run lower oil temps? Thanks, having a mental block moment here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

at high rpm say above 4000+ our stock 914s oil pressure will bypass the stock oil cooler. so this is the universal oil temp problem that needs to be addressed by the 21st century 914 World (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)
