Do you know the history of the engine,was it ok in the shovel,was your old engine overheating,the problem is you have an engine that is ok when the machine is in neutral but starts to heat as soon as you work it,so either the cooling system is not man enough to keep it cool under load or there is a mechanical reason,thermostat not opening enough,water flow through the rad too slow,rad not cooling the coolant enough,is the fan blowing enough,a heat gun can save a lot of hassle by taking a reading from the top and bottom of the rad,there should be a noticeable difference between the two even by touch if you don't have a gun. Good luck AJ [Reply]   [No Email]
