High oil temp 5000 rpm

in 912 / 914 Technical Questions 7 years ago

  • Re: High oil temp 5000 rpm

    by » 3 years ago

    Here in Las Vegas, we have temps in the 105 to 108-degree range. I have experienced higher oil temps recently (250 to 260). 

    During this time the CHT and EGT temps are running well within the green. 

    I performed a compression test and two cylinders tested at 82/87 and two others were at 72/87.

    Question:

    Is 260 deg. oil temp high enough to be a concern?

    Is the 72/87 compression check a problem?

    Or am I just overthinking this problem?
