    Default High oil Temperature

    I recently installed Full Lotus floats on my plane and during the test flight I noticed that the oil temperature climbed up to 250 rather quickly. I will mention that I installed the Zipper 105 HP kit a few years ago and did notice that my oil temp was higher than the stock motor but it never climbed this fast.

    What have you guys done for this other than possibly installing a larger oil cooler?

    No sir, Haven't tried. I tried finding a larger oil cooler to install, but haven't been able to acquire one yet. Did have a spammer (responded to me on this site) try to sell me one off a car.
