Don't know if that is out of range as I am a newbie myself with 912s but this webpage says that is the normal range.

I have heard if you don't get the temps up it does not evaporate the water (condensate) in the motor. Others with more experience will chime in.
I have my oil cooler taped off most of the time to achieve min temps.

225 F is okay for the oil temp . depending on ambient temps.
The max redline is 266 F.

Way to go Ken,good to talk to you and your wife at DeLand.
Looking forward to it Ken, on the oil cooler I am building a Panther with a 0320 lycoming and space is very tite so for the oil cooler I am using an Earls "20700" in place of the stock oil cooler, have used them on race cars with great service
Congratulations! You're an inspiration for the rest of us.
