Oil temp
Posted: Fri Aug 10, 2012 8:18 am
I'm am interested to hear anyone else experience with operating oil temp at race conditions.
I have a MkII gravel rally car with a YB Cosworth during long competitive stages the oil temp is getting to 135degC and above.
The temp sensor is mounted in the bottom of the sump
The car has a 12 row oil cooler.
The water temp remains around 95 but in tight stages at high revs might get just over 100degC
I have spoken to a few oil company tech support guys but with no success.
