Message: [QUOTE="2000wa250, post: 242959, member: 3399"] Ok this makes sense to me. A stuck stat would cause the same coolant to basically super heat, effectively turning the oil cooler into an oil heater. In turn this would cause a viscous circle where temps just kept climbing. Second part of the question. Other than this being incredibly bad for the longevity of both the oil.and the coolant, as well as many of the associated parts, what other effects on the engine would this have? I felt like I was seeing elevated egt and lack of power as well as throttle response, however duty cycle and icp still seemed to be fairly normal. Lastly, easiest fix....pull stat housing try not to get coolant everywhere, put in a stock 195* stat and replace, refilling coolant. Do I need to change my oil as well? Probably huh. Oil is only about 2000 miles old rotella t6. Thanks for the help guys. Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
