Lost in translation - can you figure this out?

[Fantom]

So I am at Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers again and they have some cheap diesel engines at the auction. I underline cheap because they fall apart from looking at it the wrong way. Anyways, It has a couple of stickers on it, can you figure out what they mean?

LOL BTW, if you see and turbo set-ups off a TD4.2, let me know.

Well these engines come with a turbo, how bad can that be.....

Like this?... Wonder what the AR is on that one.

Or perhaps they had been run like this:

Or maybe they just didn't have the right rodent protection...

Ok, lets see if I got this straight.

1. Please press on the manual to start engine. Then fill the diesel with water, when it's hot.

2. The engine should start in 3-5 minutes. Do not run the engine for longer then 10 seconds at a time for a max of 3 times.

3. Fill the engine oil with water in the winter. Fill with coolant in the summer.

4. For winter use, must fill the water cooler tank with water.

5. This careful usage will please the machine.

Congratulations on your new purchase.

Hey that's pretty good. I will see if I can find the manual that the sticker mentions, maybe it will shed some more light on this

Hmm, I wonder how I can make it fit my truck?
So what did it come out of, a large boat?

Not sure, I just grabbed it from a good UK site on turbos.

Jesus, can’t you dipsticks even read a simple manual?
It goes like this: the CD 15m/40 stands for Crankcase Defective 15meters/40 feet, whichever comes first.

1) Press the manual up and down for 10 seconds until the oil rises in the Chinese foot to the water level at a high degree.
2) Restart the engine three times in the first 10 seconds and shut down after 3-5 minutes which will please the engine mightily.
3) Pack the “winter,summer” switch with water from the water cooler in response to the vehicle remaining in place all winter if it is not pleased.
4) In winter, machine the water cooler tank and place the cooler on top of the engine.
5) If you please the machine then you haven’t read the manual. Thank you and congratulations for purchasing the Big Cherry Fok Kuew Diesel!

The glowing one. When I used to do the long trips the turbo on the ISX Cummins would glow like that at nite, same with the DODGE Cummins. THE nite I went to CHURN CREEK in may I had to pull over on asteep climb the ct20 looked like that when I disconnected the waistgate for that trip

aircraft ones will glow at night like that too. Very common when under boost for a long time.
