Tractor Novice
New User
Hello Gentlemen,
First I must admit that I am complete novice when it comes to engines and tractors. I have inherited an International Cub from my father. It is a mid '70s model...the yellow and white variety. It has served my father so well for so many years but the last couple of years it has started to overheat and the fluid/water overflows after about 5-10 minutes of use even if it just sets there.
I have had the radiator rebuilt, the carburator rebuilt and the head gaskets replaced when the head was taken off, it had warped a little but was able to fixed.
It doesn't burn oil. But I have noticed that for a long time that it doesn't have the power it use to.
Primarily I'm concerned about the overflowing fluid and the heat. I really have no idea what to do.
Is there anyone here that might offer a suggestion or some help. I'm willing to answer questions and take pictures if needed.
Thank you for your help in advance.
