you should be just fine if you dial it in to keep your coolant in the 175-190 window (your goal is 180)

Is 180F the same rating for the diesel as it is the gas VGs?

 

I would think being a diesel it should run hotter than that to promote complete burning of the fuel...

were talking about coolant temps not combustion temps.

just about every street driven vehicle out there (there are few exeptions) will fall into the 170-210 range. lager displacement and american (design) engines tend to be a little higher and smaller foreign engines seem to be about middle.

 

I don't know much about diesel but this much applies to almost all vehciles; If the correct and proper functioning thermostat is installed the coolant will bypass the radiator anytime its too cold thus allowing proper temps anyway(as long as the radiator is staying above 160) and this will happen above warm up temps so the fuel ratio and perforance will be uneffected.

 

another good guage is to let it keep the needle near the 1/2 way mark (if your needle is accurate) or near where it used to sit before the e-fan.
