couple days ago I was plowing snow (after I had to yank a couple of vehicles out of it) I got about 200 feet (2nd gear) when I noticed some steam coming out from uner the radiator cap. The temp gauge showed it a little over a quarter past half (so it was showing pretty hot).I stopped the tractor and found collant running down the hoses. Traced it back to what appears to be the shaft where the fan is attached (where the shaft enters the housing). Put more coolant in. I started it again after it cooled off (I had to move it) and headed back. When I turned it off the temp was still warm but not hot (warmer than usual... less than a quarter (winter)). The leak seemed to not be dripping much. I walked by it yesterday and found it still dripping. Looks like a rebuild huh? How hard is this. I have the manual (it doesnt go through a rebuild but the exploded view looks simple). What parts do I need and where can I get them? I saw a rebuilt water pump for $150, but seems I should be able to do the job for a lot less. Thank you Mike PS, what models are compatible with a 22?
