Welcome to OCC. Glad to see another KY smoker! I also have the diesel and it would help if you defined "hot" a little better. I have to very regularly clean my radiator. On the advice of DX I use a quality antifreeze and distilled water and I also use diesel fuel additives with every tank. I can run the BRS all day and stay in the normal range. There are lots of diesel owners that will be glad to help.
