Good afternoon all.
I have a 1947 9N/2N and I think it may be getting too hot.
I have lowered the coolant level to the core and not the cap but when I turn off the tractor is sounds as if the coolant is boiling in the radiator. This usually subsides after a few seconds. Is this normal?
On the other hand... I can bush hog or plow/disc for hours and the above mentioned "boiling sound" is the only indication that I get that there is an issue. However, if I use my finish mower in tall grass for an while the tractor will overheat and blow steam, only after I shut off the tractor.
Any thoughts? Am I getting this old tractor too hot or am I alright?
Thanks!
