I had my Gran Finale out for a good countryside run today. I was doing some filming so lots of stop starts and short runs going quite quick. Each time I pulled over to check footage I popped the engine tray to let it cool for 10mins or so. After about 4 hours (not constant use) I pulled over for the last shot and when I popped the hood I noticed what looked like steam from the oil cooler pipe. Mine has a K&N oil cooler filter fitted and it was coming out of that. I know its not water steam, but basically the oil seems to have been very hot. Is this normal if its been running for a while?
Just to add mine had the original air box removed and replaced with a K&N pancake filter which is when the other filter was added to the oil pipe. I'm not happy where that sits as it's bloody hot. So I'm planning on ditching the K&N pancake and going back to the original box and reconnecting the oil pipe to it.
