Hi all,
This question is for anyone who has flown behind the 0-200, did your aircraft
have an oil cooler? For anyone that perhaps changed their system, either to or
from, did you notice any significant difference?
I currently own a Davis DA-2, and it has an oil cooler, mounted to the side of
the lower cowling next to some vents. I would like to install an oil filter
system, which would mean removing the oil cooler to mount the oil filter
assembly. I have only flown it in the fall and over the winter, the
temperatures were cool, maybe even a little too cool. But I haven't flown in
the heat of summer so i do not know if the extra cooling is necessary.
It appears the oil cooler was originally attached to the rear of the cylinder
baffles, then moved at some point to its current position. I know the plane
was originally built in Florida, but most of the year we aren't as warm here.
(though last weekend we broke hi temp records at a "blistering" pace, 103
degrees in May in Nebraska, yikes).
Please share thoughts/opinions/experiences...
Thanks!
TJ
