Cavitation is what happened to many Ford pickups with IH diesel engines over the last 15-20 years. They were sold with no water filter or any instructions about coolant changes. After a few years, the cylinder sleeves developed holes with all attendant problems. As for the German diesels in IH tractors, I have pulled the same 4-16 semi mtd IH plow with a 560D and a 756 w/ the German diesel. There is no comparison. The plow came with the new 560 in 1962 which was traded for the 756 in about 1967 at least partly because it couldn't handle the plow. It had other issues such as rear axle bearings etc. Don't let anyone tell you the German diesel was not a great engine. I sold the 756 at age 24 for $2500 more than I paid for it new. It had over 9000 hours with no engine work.
