Re: KR> finally a flight

Worn piston rings will allow larger amounts of combustion blow by gases to escape past the rings. When large amounts of HOT blow by gases are introduced into the crankcase, the oil temperature is going to rise.You must have build a super efficient cooling system to deal with that exce

This is my guess with no real evidence to prove or disprove it. Before the overhaul the engine required more throttle and fuel to develop the same power after overhaul. The engine is doing more work with less effort keeping cooler while operating more efficiently.Tommy W.
