THE COOLING SYSTEM ON YOUR TRACTOR WORKS IN THIS FASHION, THE WATER PUMP SENDS COOLANT THROUGH THE ENGINE THEN IF THE TEMPERATURE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH THE THERMOSTAT IS CLOSED AND THE ONLY COOLANT FLOWING IS THROUGH THE BYPASS. IF THE COOLANT IS HOT ENOUGH TO OPEN THE THERMOSTAT IT THEN TRAVELS FROM THE HOT ENGINE TO THE TOP OF THE RADIATOR WHERE IT IS COOLED AS IT MOVES DOWN THROUGH THE RADIATOR.
