G'day,
KenH mentioned that his engine oil stayed clear for his foray to Montgomery and back; he attributed that to a clean, newly rebuilt
engine with fresh oil and a lack of contaminants in the oil.
I'm not disagreeing with Ken but somewhere deep in the bowels of my memory I seem to remember someone telling me or reading
something that said heat turned the oil black.
Obviously Ken's trip was not long enough to do that to his oil so does heat have an effect on engine oil color?
