i was going to go ahead and install a blanket on it and see if that makes a diff i dont think it will as it does not seem to be a heat issue as i said i get gallons of the cold water from inside and pour on there till its ice cold to the touch and it makes no diff...

oil cool thermostat it would cuase probs at idle correct? at idle the oil temp will drop within 1 degree of the water temp and stay there until i hit the road...
