Oil is cooling down the engine Tº up to 30% of what coolant does, if you don't cool it down through a radiator, or a coolant/oil heat exchanger, then oil Tº might get too high and loose its properties as well as evaporates... not a good issue!

Cargo's not thick, hes just being funny. ANyone who uses this forum knows very well he's like that. Not sure what he does for a living, but he sounds like a typical engineer sometimes, ask a question and he answers the exact question you ask.
