a.) Do you notice that when your gas engine overheats, you
can stop it and rest the engine for a few minutes? Later you can re-start and
the engine will be fine. If similar situation happens with your diesel engine,
the engine is almost always damaged beyond repair. Knowing this tip can save
you a lot of head ache when you owned a vehicle with diesel engine.
b.) On some diesel engines, the cooling system uses a
coolant filter to control the acidity (or ph value) of the coolant. This filter
ensures that the cylinder block does not have a build up of corrosive particles
inside.
c.) One advantage of using a coolant filter in your diesel
engine is that besides applying a coat of protective lining to the surface
engine metals (like your engine block), it also has an active anti-foaming
chemical agent that protects the liquid's surface tension and thus reducing the
creation of coolant bubbles. Since this chemical agent depletes over time, the
coolant filter must be replaced periodically.
