Was riding my foreman today & when I stopped for a break I noticed the oil radiator was cold. The engine was plenty warm if not hot, but the oil radiator and it's lines were cold as if no oil was going through there. My oil was 1/2 a quart low, but that sure doen't seem to be low enough to be any kind of cause. Any ideas?

I wonder how hard it is to get to the bypass. Looking at my clymer manual it seems fairly straightfoward, but I've learned in the past some things are easier said than done. The book also says the 450 only holds 2.1 quarts. Is that right? If so, 1/2 a quart low seems like a big deal. Anyone else have any ideas or suggestions on this?
