Hello to all, I started the tractor toady & it looks like its circulating with the cap off. No bubbles. When I was spraying out the fins I had it running for 3 hrs & it stayed around 150. I was using the fan to help pull the fines out of the fins. It did not over heat thou. I have changed out the water pump & all 3 belts so i don't think anything is slipping. When I fired it up to check the circulation it went from 100 t0 140 in about 5 min but you could see it trying to circulate. It was just below the stem circulating so I filled it up to just over the bottom of the stem to see if it would start making bubbles but no bubbles just looked like it was trying to circulate. So not sure what else to check beside taking the radiator out & flushing it out or trying a new radiator cap? Should I send Pics of it circulating? Maybe it's not circulating enough.
