It's getting through somewhere certainly, but if all four aren't open, you could still have trouble.
The bottom of my radiator normally runs fairly cool to the touch.
Go to the discount store and buy a cheap meat thermometer. Run the tractor until it's hot and take the radiator cap off and put the thermometer in. There shouldn't be any pressure, but be careful anyway. My B runs anywhere from 165 to 195 deg F.
You could also retrofit a water pump from a C or a Super A. It would go on in place of the lower water inlet. A longer generator belt turns it.
