Hi Mike. I have recently purchased a used model of your Thermostasis. It looks a little different from a newer style. Could you please let me know if there are any precautions about using it ?
Thanks.

As a promoter of the KISS principal in all matters, I would ask why you feel that adding significant cost, complexity & weight to a light sport aircraft is desirable, when a simple low cost piece of oil cooler/radiator blocking material, will do the job for you???
PS Don't feel you must reply - the human drive to go down this sort of rout is inexplicable.

I installed the Thermostasis along with the large oil cooler and it was the best thing I ever did to my plane. 4 years and a few hundred hours oil temperature problems are no longer an issue.

Does this combined installation seem like a contradiction?
Thermostatic (oil thermostat) to speed heating (engine warm up) & maintained the oil temperature within the desired/recommended operating range (keep warm in cold ambient temperatures).
Installing a larger oil cooler who's purpose is to cool oil more effectively (make colder) than the last smaller oil cooler.
