That is certainly odd. I had lower temps going from a 12 tooth to a 14 tooth, and also from 12 to an 11 tooth. It's hard to do different runs without changing variables (5s vs. 4s, running area), but this seemed to be the trend.

Did you go back to using a 13 or 15 tooth after using the 14 tooth? One loose connection from the motor to the esc can increase motor temps A LOT. So can bad gear mesh.
