That's after driving for a while?

How close are the temps first thing in the morning for ECT, EOT and TFT?

Just brainstorming, you said it was fully bulletproofed in your other thread. Sounds like you have a cooling system problem, like a broken water pump.

In the real world this can't actually happen. You would be breaking about half the laws of physics.
You have a biased sensor [out of range] or what you are reading them with is messed up.

The cooling system is designed for the coolant to absorb the heat of the oil and the block. The coolant is then cooled by the air flowing thru the radiator. The air flow absorbs the heat of the coolant.

You have to be the luckiest 6.0 owner on the planet!.....

I suspect you are being fed some inaccurate information from your sensors though.

By fully bulletproofed do you mean bulletproof oil cooler setup? If that's the case then EOT can easily be lower than ECT.

Unplug the sending unit, clean the terminal and plug it back in. Same thing happened to me and it had a high resistance connection at the plug. You should also post the year and all mods, esp. engine related, in your sig. Makes it easier for people to help you.
