We just finished building an RV-14. We are encountering excessively high oil temperature while CHT’s are fine (340 - 360 F). We have installed the 5” duct kit to no avail. Have ordered cowl flaps to install. In the mean time we want to check the vernatherm. I know to check the seat to make sure it is closing properly. The expansion / contraction can be checked in a hot water bath. How much should it expand and at what temperature?
We have the IO-390 Thunderbolt engine and now have 40.1 hours on the plane.
Thanks for your input.
