its a diesel engine, and I have always shut down on diesel. a diesel engine at idle produces less heat than a gas and cools lots faster on diesel. diesel shut down has no effect on the gas restart at all. many people say they switch to gas to clean the plugs for the next start. well this is totally not true as the diesel combustion never see's the plugs. proper warm up and cool down is the biggest factor as in any engine. other than the jimmies ... as they are 2 cycle and not as particular. say when power goes down in a hospital they can have the jimmie back up power running wide open quickly.
