keeping my 400 ex cool??
i was up at cinder hills in arizona a month or so ago and the engine was getting extremely hot. i have a 2005 400ex, it has a stock oil cooler. but i was wondering if anyone had info on a larger oil cooler or some ideas on how to keep the engine cooler?
thanks,
Jared

There are some after market oil coolers out there, but to be honest I don't know that it would make much difference. However for a 400ex it is crucial to have it jetted properly. I always run mine just a little rich. Also on those hot days (even for liquid cooled machines) keep it moving. The air going over the engine is very important. Shrouds may help a little, but again only when the machine is moving.

I'm not sure - but I think i've seen coolers w/ a fan attatched ??? - and I know someone makes bigger coolers - I use a pingreys brand oversized oil tank on mine - it holds an extra quart or so - the nice thing about the one they make is it has like 7-8 one inch tubes thru it from front to back - to increase surface size and the air can flow thru it - - with that and air shrouds and keeping my cooler clean (if they're clogged w/ dirt they don't work) mine hasn't overheated yet and it's FAR from stock - -good luck

does anyone have a way to get ahold of mickey at fst? i've been trying to find anything on four stoke tech. but can't get anything to actually find a way to contact them.
as for rejetting. from the pheonix area. how many jets up or down in size should i go. i beleive the pheonix area is around 1000 feet. and cinders is about 7 to 8 thousand feet..
so scoops, rejetting, and find a way to get ahold of mickey for a possibly larger oil cooler?
thank you guys
