Why would you run two thermostats? Especially in today's electronically
controlled diesels? The systems are designed to run at a given temp and
the cooling systems should handle the excess heat be it below zero
or above 100. The thermostat should hold a temperature where the
engine runs well. If the cooling system won't handle a base temp of
10F higher, then the system needs work.
