thanks mike for the reply....i didn't change the oil as of yet and i didn't mess with the block itself. i did run water through the engine without the radiator on it and it came out pretty clean. the radiator was clean as well after i flushed them out.. there was a significant ammount of rust and gunk in the bottom water pipe. after i posted i went out and filled it back up with water and ran it at 3/4 throttle for about twenty minutes and the water at the top of the rad was hot but not hot enough to burn my finger (kinda like a good hot shower). the tractor runs really nice and smooth so i don't think it is the timing it is just wierd why it over heats like it does. it reminded me of my old john deere a. the water would steam and the radiator would be hot but it would not boil. is there anything i can put into the system to break up any lime or rust in the engine or should i just keep going the way i am?
