Default Cooling factor ??

Ok guys your thoughts or opinion on this one, a couple of years ago when flying my apache ll which at the time had my irvine 40 diesel in it. (this is Florida)
and this rain squall hit in minutes when the plane was quite a ways out. It of course cooled down in a hurry developed the diesel miss but kept running
and we got her back and landed under power, of course as soon as went below half throttle it quit. I wonder if a glow engine would have kept running
under those conditions ?? martin

may be a dumb question since engine in boats are usually water cooled anyhow
