Oil Cooler
#19
So I'm thinking out loud here. From my rudimentary knowledge of cars I thought cold oil is a positive. The main negative of cooler oil temperature being that it doesn't flow as well, putting more pressure on the pump and not flowing to important internal components. But isn't the engine and all internal components perpetually oil soaked, so the only negative being oil pump working overtime. Can this problem be negated by using a lighter weight oil?

I can't remember why I think colder oil is better. Thermal efficiency? Less entropy?

I've got a 16 row cooler on an xud9. Seems its probably not needed but I'll have to do some more reading now.
