W-30 boiled over last night !

Hey all -

Had my W-30 on a Baker fan for about an hour last night running pretty full throttle, but a little under rated govenor speed. After about 50 minutes of this, coolant was running out the overflow, and when the radiator cover was removed, about a half gallon of fluid spilled over the tractor. Level was previously checked at about 1-1/2" below the top. Air temp was about 70F. Was this too much load for the old girl, or are other problems looming on the horizion?

Tractor was purchsed last year old & unrestored & running great, but engine was never opened up.

Seeking your wisdom .......

Pete
