Elite Heat
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 4:51 pm
Hi Bob,
Any suggestions on how to get the oil temp down on my Elite ?
Running at 22o on an 85 degree day.
I have enlarged the lower cowl bottom cutout to 1.25 the inlet in sq inches- increased the scat hose cooling hose from the baffle from 1 inch to 3 inches and redirecting it onto the oil filter ,swapped out the Positec 7 row for as Niagra 8 row and have as of yet not achieved much reduction (5-7 degrees)in oil temp.
Have a Stuart Warner filter but am resisting the firewall retrofit until I am out of options?
Tks
John W
