Hi,
I bought my first 2 cylinder tractor(49 A) recently and have some questions. The previous owner used plain water in the radiator and would drain it out after it cooled off each time he used it. The radiator is new. I decided to use 50/50 antifreeze. After taking it out for a couple of rides some coolant is coming out the overflow pipe. Is the cooling system burping air causing coolant to spill out into the overflow? The coolant is still close to the top in the radiator. The carb was sweating after going for a ride in 50 F weather. It had rained during the night and the air was somewhat humid. Is this normal?
