Didn't we go through this already. More sump capacity doesn't provide
"more
lubrication and cooling". You noted this yourself when you installed the
separator and the oil temp was unchanged.


Actually, I read all the posts in that thread, and concluded that no one
could prove anything one way or the other.

As for the oil temperature read-out being unchanged, I guess I wouldn't
expect it to read cooler at the probe, assuming the oil cooler was working
properly to begin with. With more oil, however, the system may be "working
less hard" to achieve that same temperature.

But I quite honestly don't know if that's what's really happening.
