(08-13-2016, 05:51 AM)Roadwarrior_imp Wrote: Engine oil needs to see temps. regularly (but not constant) above 212. This is needed to evaporate the moisture in the oil created by internal combustion. If it is not evaporated it will mix with other chemicals created by internal combustion to create acid, which will erode seals, bearings,
rings, cyl. bore, etc. Most oils start breaking down at about 275 degrees,
but a good synthetic oil is good to about 350 degrees. Probably why the warning light is set for 340.

Just curious how you know the High Oil Temperature Indicator is set to come on for 340F? Is it in service manual specs? Thanks
