Okay, here's the deal.
I've got a 1066 that is running hot. Have narrowed it down to that 40-year-old radiator; pretty darned sure that it is plugged up inside.
Think it needs cleaned because we have really hard water out here......REAL BAD hard water. I can watch the temp rise as the outside air temp increases.
Anyway, I'm in the field, still have 300 acres to go and don't wanna stop for a week to yank the radiator and have it rodded at a radiator shop.
Why can't I drain/save the coolant, fill 'er up with distilled white vinegar and run it fer a day that way?
It sure works on coffee pots and shower heads.
Why wouldn't it work on my old tractor as well?
