My uncle had a Deutz tractor. A couple times he neglected to clean out the cooling fan and it heat seized while doing field work. He just let it cool off, cleaned the straw/dust out the fan and kept going a couple hours later. That says something.
I doubt it was ever the same after each seizure, but still....
They are extremely noisy engines due to lack of insulation (read: water jackets). But extra [Deutz-style] noise might add to the coolness coefficient.
