Are oil cooled engines good?

The oil-cooled engines come with an added cooling mechanism and are definitely better than the air-cooled
air-cooled
In all combustion engines, a great percentage of the heat generated (around 44%) escapes through the exhaust, not through the metal fins of an air-cooled engine (12%).

AIR COOLED vs OIL cooled vs WATER cooled ENGINES



How often does liquid cooling need maintenance?

Because it's a sealed unit, they require little to no maintenance. They also don't need to be topped up as they don't experience evaporation like DIY setups. In order to maximize compatibility across a wide range of systems, all-in-one units often leave you with more tubing than you actually need.
