Farmtrac 320 DTC Over Heating

[tusekiaharjo]

I hve a 2004 Farmtrac 320 DTC. Lately it has been running hot (over 200 degrees) when I am brush hogging. I installed a new 160 degree thermostat thinkijng that was the problem but the tractor is still overheating. The only thing(s) I haven't tried is taking the radiator off and taking it to a radiator shop to have it rotted out or change the water pump. Has anyone had this problem with their Farmtrac 320? Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Have you tried using a water hose to clean the front screen & also the radiator. It's best to rinse from the back (engine side) to the front.
It doesn't take much dirt to block the air flow.

Thanks for your reply. I have washed the core from the outside in but not the inside out. There seems to be plenty of water making it through but I will give your suggestion a try. Thanks for the help.
