On my QSC8.3-540’s during a normal cruise I see engine coolant temps of 172. I can run for a two hour run and the temps never budge. Temps cool down as soon as I come off plane as expected. I idle into the harbor and get into my slip.Ā
My question is not cooling system related per se, rather I wonder how long should I idle and let things cool down before shutting down? Once tied up at the dock I see temps at 158 so I am sitting on the thermostat. I let her run for a bit longer to let oil temps and the turbos cool, but how long should I let them cool before shutdown? 5 mins, 10mins? Is longer better?Ā
