The whole premise of "cool down on gas," is based on the fact that the engine is WORKING on diesel and IDLING on gas.
A diesel engine that has been working at full capacity all day long will be hotter than a gas engine that has been sitting idling all day long.
By idling on gas for a few minutes before shutdown, as the original operator's manual describes, you are not only allowing the engine to cool, but are purging the cylinders of diesel fuel, making the engine easier to start tomorrow.
