merlynr, I have had the same problem in tall weeds on my IH 966! I basically solve that Problem You described by using a piece of... as tight a mesh as you can find Burlap/Gunny Sack in front of the grill to catch the light trash, leaves, fuzzy seed heads and any other crap the fan can Draw into the Radiator. Just like in your pix. Clean the grill out every am, noon, Perhaps even... late pm too but it will require you to shut the tractor down. So for me that is a Cold Shut down procedure. You also must also eliminate other air inlet sources that would let UN-filtered air get drawn into the radiator. Many yrs ago I was into a huge Shredding Contract...( 800 acres, mainly pastures ans some fields about a month and a half deal) the fuzzy crap was driving me nuts, tractor just on the verge of running hot, Mid August in Texas 100++++++ temps I was shaking out the Burlap overlay 2xs/day! The place had a power washer I could use so every other day I was washing the radiator out too. The Burlap overlay saved my Briskets and temp dropped back into the Normal range! Hope this helps! Later, John A.
