Condensation
OK I ran motort to 140 and condensation I s gone restricted water at hose now it's all gone. Or was it from sitting a Mon t h ?
|
I think a question here is how much condensation? I always has a bit on my motors in my Cafe - bypass and no stats. I screwed around with restricutors, etc, but finally just gave up. It wasn’t like I was getting to the end of the season and my oil was watered down/milky, there was just always some condensation under the valve covers and on the bottom of the breathers…..
|
I run a closed cooling system(engine only, love my aluminum heads) 160 thermostat and she runs 160-170, I have a very large oil cooler and it runs 200ish and it seems to burn of the condensation no problem, I imagine that after I shut her down overnite there probably is some but seems too burn off/evaporate after a good long run, you should try an oil temp gauge very handy to keep an eye on temps.
