In the H2 pic, your oil rads are at 100% as the levers are full forward and your brown icon in the lower left is at the top.  You should be able to pull the lever down to move it, or use a key binding to lower it.  For the H-6, the oil is interconnected with the water rad, which by the blue icon shows it to be at 100%.  Both engine problems are probably due to too high an rpm for too long which will crater your engines.

 

In H-2, keep rpm 2300 for climb power.  In H-6, keep 2400 for climb power and 2200 for cruise power for both.

Sorry for thread resurrection, but related topic: I'm unable operate/key-bind the oil radiators in the He 111 H-6...?   

 

The bindings seem straightforward:  oil radiator #1/#2 - open, oil radiator #1/#2 - close... but I get zero visual feedback of the radiator handles moving.  I couldn't figure out how to add the oil radiator status to the little graphic control display.  Only feedback I get is the temps climb to crit, so I assume it is NOT doing what I expect    

 

P.S.  I notice supercharger plungers don't visually move either, but the little controls graphic display shows their state changing.
