I am wondering if I should switch over to coolant for my combustion engines or if I should just use water, what are the advantages? Is it worth it?
 
If you can automate the production of coolant, you can reduce the throughput infrastructure required for the cooling of combustion engines.
 
Basically, if you use the aqueous accumulator from TE, using water is fine as it can supply more than enough to cool 3 engines. If you use any other source of water, you will likely want to invest in alternate cooling methods as water generation is much less reliable. (xcraft excluded)
