Part one- Coolant Hot? Open Thermo. Damn! That Rad has some COOOOOLD
coolant in it, better close down. Cycle, cycle, spike, spike spike. (It
is possible to combine an unfortunately mismatched set of components.
It's possible to over cool a motor.)

Part Two - Yep, thermostatically controlled oil cooler is the way to go.


Luv you anyway,
