[Vwdiesel] Ways of cooling an AAZ

[Bryan Belman]

True, true, I wonder what the oil temp is on 2.5 qts of oil in an air cooled vw 
bug.  I bet it could be 300F
I guess my oil cooler setup will be a nice $100 experiment as that is about that 
it cost me so far.....
I still need the lines.

So, he should not bother hooking it back up.  It was his coolant temp then, not 
oil temp, getting to hot.???

  Politely I say bah!  :-D
  It MAY run hot in warm to hot weather under a load/hill.  I have a 
turbo on the Dasher, with no oil cooler and an oil temp gauge.  Oil 
temps would heat up on hills (been so long I don't recall exactly what) 
but nobody thought it high when I first asked around (245F?  260F?)
It just didn't go higher.  A TDI should go higher though, but I still 
wouldn't expect it to get anywhere near an air cooled beetle in AZ in 
the summer!
