Thanks very much, Martin, for the article on intercylinder and Oil Tank baffles.
I was unaware of the need for the oil tank baffle, as my engine does not have one.
It may well be that the lack of that baffle is the source of my high oil temp problem.
Thanks again!

Does anyone know where I might find an oil tank baffle for my C-85 engine (Cessna part number 0450166)?
Thanks

My pleasure.
May be or may be not.
just to let you know that I did not have that oil tank baffle either and I did not have problems with oil temp.
But at least you know it exists.

To find one could be quite a challenge, but maybe some people on the forum can source you one.
Cheers!
