Not good you want the water in the oil to burn off. Water doesn't boil at 165 F.

You don't need to hit 212* to get rid of water. Hell, my drier doesn't hit 212*, but my clothes are still dry.

165* is still way too low for automotive oil to function the way it was intended. I would imagine it is VERY thick at 165*, as compared to the 200=ish it is made to work at. Too thick = not getting where it needs to go/extra strain on the oil-pump, etc. etc.

You need something to cover a good part of the core. That's way, way, way too low.

Bought my car a week ago so it has not been over 185-190. I'm not sure what's going to happen in the summer.
