Default decision time - oil coolers necessary?
currently working on oil-lines, and have started wondering if the stock oil-cooler is really necessary?

Other then reduced oil capacity...are there any other issues I may encounter in a non-autobahn continent?

thanks,
manny

Oil Thermostat and some line routing/cleaning are all that remain for this issue
