Have seen this problem several times . So here are things to check , (1) make sure your fins are not plugged with dirt and dust or any oil spray ,(2) make sure your oil cooler fins are clean since the usually set in ft. of the rad. (3) have your Hyd. oil temp checked to make sure it is not getting hotter then Normal , if your dragging extra hot air thru the oil cooler then this will raise the Coolant temps . With age and the new antifreeze additives the tubes inside the rad built up a like ceramic coating and will NOT transfer the heat well . I had this happen on a semi . To solve that problem with out replacing the rad we got a system cleaner from Cat and to use you had to remove the T stats drain and flush the system ALL the way thru then ya added this one bottle and run the engine with the rad covered to bring engine temp up to 200 degrees and hold that temp for a half hour to 45 min. then drain and flush several times and install the Stats and refill with new antifreeze . When i did the semi you could not believe what all came out when i drained it . But the over heating problem was gone .

But no matter how good or bad auctions may be, we always seem to stay until the item we've come for or are interested in is on the block. I've been to some auctions near and far. I think the furthest has been the Two Cylinder 7 in the Amana Colonies last year. Lots of stuff, lots of people. I've also atten
