Hi folks
this time of the year, temps are around -25 C at 11000´, my Aztec is running oil temp around 110F on left and 130F on right engine on my Insight G4. The old gauges are showing still in the green below the central dot… I tried to put some height density sponges on the oil cooler and didn’t help in increasing oil temps. I have to admit the oil temp are always on the low side also in summer (140F and 160F max).
Do you think this is an issue cruising with low temps?
Is there a winterizing kit far Aztec ?
Thanks for your help!
