when you get it sorted out , run with a lower quantity oil ( still on the dip stick ), this will lower your oil temp aswell . The oil goes through the cooler quicker and dosent sit in the sump and get hot . I did this with a c208 ( parachute flying )and dropped the oil temp by 15 degrees ,and pawnees .As long as the oil is on the dip stick you shouldnt have any problems
