I have an old 53 John Deere 70, gas pretty good old tractor. It has been over heating and blowing coolant out the over flow pipe when it gets warm. My questions are, not familiar with the 70, would that be either the water pump or possibly the thermostat. I have not had the tractor long and it sat for quite a while. Is the thermostat located at the upper water pipe where it connects to the radiator? Would a first step be to flush out the whole cooling system?
If so how does one go about changing that. Thanks for any advice.
