Recently I installed an Anti Splat oil cooler shutter. I use a Bowden cable on the panel to operate it. Has made an amazing difference to climb temperatures as I close it in climb and redirect all the oil cooler air to engine cooling. Has anyone set up a solenoid or similar on the oil cooler lever coupled to an EFIS to manage a temperature range? Using today’s technology I imagine it would be doable but out of my pay grade. I’ve though of using a spring so I never leave it fully closed. My present management is to leave my hand on the push/pull cable until I have the desired oil temperature.
