1 The affect of antifreeze on the radiator size is that with more glycol it has less ambient capability, about 1.8F for each 10% up to 50%. So with more antifreeze in the system you would need a larger radiator.
2 Detonation is when the fuel/air ignites and the flame front travels across the chamber. The end fuel gets too hot from compression from the flame front, a hot spot, bad fuel and combusts.The two flames collide and create a ping or "knock".
3 Deciding on when to service your machine should come from usage. how much how many hours and what conditions your working in.
4 “Combustion air flow requirements will vary, depending on the specific engine model and rating. Specific air flow data for Caterpillar engines is given in both…” Volumetric and mass readings.
Good...you understand the effect.
