I was using my Super A today for plowing snow and as it warmed up I started opening the throttle and applying more load. After maybe half an hours running I was a bit over half throttle when I noticed considerable quantities of steam coming from under the rad cap (it's a little loose). Taking the load off and running it at idle solved the problem enough to finish another 5 minutes or so of plowing but there was still a small amount escaping. I have had the radiator recored recently and the new core has much smaller tubes (although twice as many). It was about 0 degrees celsius here today so I'm thinking I ought to add a water pump. If I do this, where can I get the parts from in Canada? Also I'll need a thermostat (do I also need a new upper water hose connection to mount the thermostat in?), pump, and belt. Should I also install a temp. gauge at the same time? Is there anything else I need to think about or know to do this? Thanks, SAm in NS
