Ok so this was brought up in another thread of mine.
i currently have and air to oil cooler and i think its running oil in my truck cooler than i would like for the winter
2005 f150 xlt 5.4 3v
oil tems in the winter at running temp around 170
in the summer towing hard right at 210 which is about perfect i believe
*please correct me if im wrong
A optimal oil temp is 190 to 210 degrees f
before my oil cooler i was running 235 for an oil temp in the summer while towing
oil/ air cooler VS oil/water cooler
there is several types and i dont want to run the oil cold but stabilizing it around the 210 degrees would be nice
what are the pros and cons
someone was very smart to mention that oil would heat up quicker with oil to water cooler especially if in the heater core loop which totaly makes sense
i know ford has used the oil to water coolers on a few different vehicles
Lets hear those opinions
Thank you so much in advance
