Hello All; On my 8n, I have flushed out the radiator, replaced the hoses and installed a new thermstat in the upper hose. Prior to doing all mentioned activities, my 8n ran HOT. I should mention that there was NO termostat in the upper hose. Hopefully after the cleaning and flushing the radiator and eengine, having a thermostat inline, it will run cooler. My question is whether I should source and install a FAN SHROUD for the 8n? I have seen many an 8n without a fan shroud, but am willing to get one and install it brfore putting the hood back on the tractor, if it will help keep it at normal operating temp. One other question, if I may, has anyone installed a temperature guage on an 8n? I wonder where to moount the gauge and install the sensor? One final question, what is normal operating temp of the 8n? The new thermostat is a 160 degree unit, so is it that range? Any thoughts on use of a fan shroud and mounting a temperature gauge and sensor on an 8n are greatly appreciated. 'Thanks, Skip

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
