The loss of coolant could be that you are filling it up to the very top of the neck of the radiator. That is what is done with modern cars/trucks/tractors, but not yours. The radiator should be filled only to an inch above the core. This is full. If filled up the expanding coolant has no where to go, and pushes out of the cap and overflow. Use a wooden ruler to check the level, but don't spear it down in there, just feel for the core as you put it in. If it overheats (actually is hot using a hand held temp gauge aimed at the top tank, above 200 Degrees F) Fixing it might save it from destruction. Even if it means having someone else, or a different solution to tractoring needs. Jim
