True. Water will evaporate but the water molecules must be exposed to
air (on the surface) for that to happen. When I drove all year I had
problems with mayo oil in the winter.

There are a variety of things that will make it run hot, not just
timing. But the conditions the OP describes just sounds like normal
ops to me.
