Default temperature 'rage'?? My oil doesn't get angry....but it does range from

zero degrees to roughly 225 degrees at highway speeds. Lately, with the cold weather, it seems to be more like 200 degrees (highway).

Default thermostatically controlled, I believe. Mine sits at 225 unless

outside temp gets around 100F and I'm on the highway for several hours..it still stabilizes at below 250.
