Correct oil temp VR6 Storm

Recommended Posts

Have bought a VR6 Storm and she runs at around 104 degrees oil temp. Is this ok, or should this be lower?

Also the air con's knackered (or so it would seem). How much is fixing that going to set me back?

Go easy on me, I know jack about mechanics.

That's a fine running temp assuming that's going fairly quick. Mine gets to about 112 and that's when absolutely canning it.

 

Runs around 100 normally.

 

Could always fit an oil cooler if you'd like to lower the running temps (something I will get round to doing one day!).

I wouldn't worry about anything up to 112-114....

 

And generally make sure you wait till it reaches 80-86 degrees before going above 3000 rpm or labouring it..
