Don't know if it shows up more in one brand of engine than another. If you have a wet sleeve diesel engine you best run coolant with the correct SCAs. I've read Cummins technical bulletins and they say a sleeve can fail in 30K miles of road service without SCAs. Cummins does not require SCAs for the B block engine as it is non sleeved. I have heard of cavitation showing up in the non sleeve Powerstroke Ford engine although I can not verify that. I have a C8.3 wet sleeve Cummins and I monitor the SCA level at each service. I have a 172 cid Ford in an old 4000 and I don't worry about cavitation in it. ray
