I recently put in an external oil cooler and replaced a piece of missing engine tin. The van was running around 230-250 oil temps. Temp guage is a VDO temp on the sump. But now with the oil cooler and replaced tin it is running around 160-190. Are these too cool? I am running 20w50 for oil. Should I try 10-40 or 10-30 to get the temps back up? Or should I be happy that the temps are so low. I have heard that too cool oil temps are hard on the engine. Jared 82 Vanagon
