That's mighty interesting.
Wonder if Bosch India are just doing what they were told is OK?
I think the Merc one I posted Is from long ago, I don't have my printed 617 book anymore.

Quantum-Man scored a TSB binder and shared this on the other board... nobody there seemed to buy into the idea, either.

Great info!
So, just make sure they pop when they're supposed to and don't leak. That takes a lot of didling around out of it.
Cylinder washdown can happen in diesels. Let it sit and idle all day. Now its wet stacked and raw fuel is getting past the rings and whatnot. Granted the wear may not be as bad as gasoline but its still happenin.
Ya see it all the time when someone leaves a diesel idling for an extended period. Then when you finally run it up itll smoke like a bear till it gets warm again and burns the raw crap out.
