What's the smoke point of engine oil?
Transmission oil would be much better. It is a heat coolant.

I've been using engine oil as a coolant for high power resistors but
am wondering whether something like peanut, sunflower or avocado oil
would be better. Engine oil gives off an awful smell when it breaks
down, smells like rotten eggs. Can't find transformer oil. Any
thoughts?
