So my rebuild is done and is finally tuned and dialed in. 2.0 liter to 2.7.
The oil temp averages 240 running on 20 50 regular oil and averages 217 on 5 30 synthetic. Seems like the 20 50 would run cooler as the 5 30 would be to thin.
The rings seated fine so I see no issue there.
Thoughts? Ideas?
I was thinking about a different oil cooler with a fan but if the synth runs cooler, why get one? Would the thinner synth eventually have a problem? I tried with both regular gas and premium.
Funny thing is the engine seems to run smoother with the 20 50.
