I've been sorting this old loader's troubles out ever so slowly but now I have another question and any and all help would be much appreciated.Its a 1981 loader with a 471 GM engine.I'm using it to haul away from a small screener here on my farm.Last week it was getting hot while using it so I changed the thermostat completly flushed the engine and radiator.I also cleaned the radiator outside and blew it out with air gun.Back together it stayed down on temperature for an hour or so and then stated getting hot again.I don't seem to have any leaks engine has full power and is working fine.If someone has a direction I could start looking it would be a big help.My neighbor suggested gettin a laser heat sensor tool that I guess you ain at different areas to tell you where it might be faulty,I think he said Princess Auto sells them up here.The radiator has no holes and seems clean as well.
