If your oil is only reaching 175 F, then it is not getting hot enough. Your oil temp needs to get above 212 F to burn off water that has mixed with the oil, from combustion or atmospheric conditions.Lower oil temps = less carbon deposits produced and left in the system, and why not, add more oil and cool it as well, not like im loosing pressure or anything, and with proper fittings and clamps should never leak, and yes ive got a oil temp gauge, heat ranges between 105-120F at idle and 150-175F at wot and normal driving conditions
