Water Wetter Diesel Vs Regular Water Wetter

I've been reading on the forums that guys that use Redline Water Wetter prefer to use the Diesel formula vs the regular formula.. Whats the logic behind this? I'm looking to add it to my cooling system but want to add the correct one.

Thanks!

The thread in this very forum that you reference, where it’s talked about, goes into great detail on why the diesel version is better. A Google search will yield even more info.

Sat in essentially stand-still traffic all the way to the Hamptons and the gauge never broke 199F.
Once traffic broke it was under 195 the entire time at 70mph+.

The system copes just fine with high temps and low loads. I drive around in city traffic all day Friday. It was 118 degrees here. Water temps never over 197. Oil goes up and down, higher on the highway than sitting still.

The challenge cooling this motor in the W204 chassis only occurs when you're pushing the car hard, not barely moving.
