I agree with you that the tractors should have had the coolant filter from the day they were released but we were at a planter clinic at our Deere dealer yesterday and of course they had to talk up their lubricants and coolants and they said there was a guy there with three JD tractors over 10,000 hours that had never been overhauled. They also said that he was lucky to go that long without cavitation even with a good mainance program. The way I understand it age has very little to do with cavitation, it only happens while the engine is running so hours should be the bigger factor there. Even the coolant filters do not eliminate the cavitation, it is a natural occurance in a wet sleeve diesel engine with replacable sleeves but the conditioners in the coolant filters do help alot and some of the newer anti-freezes also contain additives to slow down cavitation.
