Radiator leaks: Close off tubes?

I need to close off and solder up 4 tubes on the radiator of my styled B due to damage/leaks. Assuming the rest of the radiator is clear and free of blockages and most of the fins are straight, will it run too hot like this?

The tractor is used for light mowing and other light duty around the farm, no pulling or tillage.

If it's got a water pump, expect more leaks elsewhere.

It will probably be fine. Four tubes is a small amount of cooling. Tillage would probably be the most load to make it hot. Since you aren't plowing, this should not be a problem. We once had an A that probably had 8 to 10 soldered off on a three row core. Never had trouble from it. Good luck, Jason.
