I made a phone call David and was told to check the top of your oil filter base for a large nut on top some models had what was called a Thermatic oil control valve but I think 1988 was the last year for it but you never know so don't quote me on that. If you have that valve it may need servicing. I was told by a DD repair facility the only time to worry about the oil temperature is when its running over 230 degrees for long periods of time
