Quick question for clarification. In 91.205, an oil temp gauge is required equipment for an air cooled engine, as is an oil pressure gauge for an engine using a pressure system. Are there any exceptions for flying with an inop oil temp gauge as long as the oil pressure gauge is still functioning? I can find no exception, but I've heard debate that this is acceptable.
 
The FSDO can offer an exception in the form of a ferry permit. If you need to move the plane to get it fixed, that's the option. Other than that, no, I don't believe so.
