I just pulled my raditor hoses off & did not see thermostat inside either hose?
do you think I should add a thermostat to upper hose or just leave out...
btw no temperature gauge on tractor

The thermostat is more often mounted inside the cast iron housing behind the hose connection. It would be where the upper radiator hose connects. There should be either two or three bolts to remove to access the thermostat.
If you have already done that and don't see one they may have been running without one.
Also look on that same cast iron housing where the upper hose connects for where the temperature gauge may have connected. You really need to get a working temperature gauge.
 
Hi thanks for your advice I would love to have temperature gauge it just wasnt instaled on this
old fergy 1948.......I looked in manual & it reads that thermostat belongs inside hose
actually.....I never seen one without a housing for the themostat.....
really no problems of it over heating to date, I have had this for 4 years......
was just puzzled about the thermostat.

Thanks again.
