Five minutes after I start my Massey 275, the radiator coolant comes gushing, and I mean gushing, out of the overflow tube. Shut the tractor down. I waited a day and refilled it to proper level. Thought maybe it has a blown head gasket? Started a cold engine and looked down the radiator top fill for bubbles or any activity. After 30 seconds all was quiet. Put a new radiator cap on. My old one is rated for 6 lbs pressure. This new one is rated for 16 lbs. Tractor ran for 10 minutes and same ol problem when engine got hot---fluid started to gush out of the overflow again. I'm nervous that I may have a serious problem. I planned on making this my main haying tractor. Any suggestions would be appreciated and thankfully accepted!
