Just to add to a couple of the other posts. Pre-mix the anti-freeze prior to pouring into the radiator. Mix it per the manufacturer's instructions. Usually a 50-50 mixture protects to the lowest temperatures. The A has the same block as the C. My C does NOT have a water inspection port on the side of it like the bigger tractors. Removing the radiator hoses and flushing it out good with water will most likely do the trick. With the engine cold you could remove the radiator cap (carefully) and then start it up. You can check the flow of water coming from the upper radiator hose. You can either use a thermometer or your finger to see if it is starting to warm up. Just be careful that you don't burn yourself. Good luck.
