I refilled the lost fluid and measured it precise, and it lost only 1/2 gallon, that's 2 1/4 qts of the total cooling capacity of 10.5 qts. So, I stand corrected on what I wrote earlier. I now re-filled it to the top, and started the engine with the cap off. Immediately the fluid began to rise out of the radiator, just like a rising tide, no bubbles. I kept sticking my finger in to drain it so I could see better if it bubbled, but it would just rise again.I kept doing that, and never did I see bubbles. Eventually I just put the cap back on, and none flowed out anymore. The temperature didn't get past like 150 while I was doing all that at about 1400 rpm (estimated as I don't have a tach yet).
I then revd it up to like 2000, and the temperature began to rise and kept going to 215 before I decided to rev it down. No steam came out. I let it idle for a while and turned it off at 200 degrees as it wouldn't cool less than that.
If my old memory serves me correct, I think I remember now, seeing this once before in my life sometime, the water just rising out with no bubbles, and if I remember correctly, it was the water pump, not working. Is that correct?

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
