The best thing about the oil temp dipstick is that you will know when the temp is LOW. That will indicate oil flow problems.

[/align][/align]Good to know, but what do they consider LOW? And how would I know if it was too HIGH?[/align]

On my 07 I took the oil ring off and tried it and it screwed in flush with the casing. So I replaced it with a thinner oil ring and it worked perfect. Much luck.
