Farmall c overheating

Posted by jason r on February 17, 2002 at 14:45:22 from (65.234.70.132):

i just bought a 1950 c. it runs very well w/ no smoke good oil pressure. it has 2 problems. i can run it for about 10 minutes and it overheats and dies. i have taken the radiator off and cleaned it out. i have also flushed out the block. the block does have a crack on the outside clutch side right in the middle. it is about 4 inches long going horizontally right where the angled and flat part of the engine meet.it has not been fixed. i do not have water in the oil and it does not affect the running. after all of the things i did to the tractor would the crack be causing the tractor to overheat? it is a thermosyphon system w/ no thermostat or water pump. when i do fix the block should i jbweld it or should i have it welded as i don't have the money to buy a replacement block. thanks for the help
