My son & I did a pond project today & it was a hot one out there. We rebuilt the steering clutches & re-cored the engine rad & cleaned the torque rad a few months back & it runs quite a bit cooler now. The engine & torque gauges got just up to the red after pushing it hard much of the day, but much better than it was before. Steering clutch's work excellent now as well.
Good work getting rid of the spoil. I've never been able to understand why these older machines run so hot. I wonder, did they always since new, or when they get old are they just not able to cool? Maybe we push them harder than they were designed to. Nice little crawler.
