225).Coring
Oil temperature increase
Oil pressure increase
Oil temperature increase then decrease
(A problem that can occur during starting in very cold weather is Coring. It
is caused by the fact the cold viscous oil does not flow correctly through
the engine.)

(To overcome coring oil cooler flaps should be Closed, this will initially
increase temperature but should improve flow particularly through the
cooler, and then bring temperatures down.)
