johnODB2vr 1 Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 hi guys, just wondering. if you doing a fair bit off speed on the motorway for a little while what kind off temps does you digital read give ? becuase the needle guage stays the same.? so i was wondering maybe its time for an oil cooler to keep the temp down, and what size i.e, 13 or 16 row cooler shall i go for as i intend to charge it at a later date ? cheers john Link to post Share on other sites
craggsy 91 Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 Needle is water temp and should stay dead centre.......oil temp on digi can go up and down depending on road conditions. I had 118 sat in traffic on way to ring!!!!! Link to post Share on other sites

Had 100 once....rest of the time it just sits there motorway or traffic alike Link to post Share on other sites
