cat 311b overheating

lundi 1 février 2016

My excavator runs really great. However, if I really push it hard for a few hours, it starts to run hot. Raising the hood helps, but still it will run hot, even in the winter if I push it. Once I idle back and let it set, it cools off pretty quickly, but also heats back up pretty quickly.

If it is hot summer, it seems to run hot pretty quickly even when I am not pushing it hard.

It is only the water temp that gets high....the hydraulic oil temp stays ok.

The Air Conditioner is no longer connected, but there is a small radiator in front of the main radiator. I 'think' this is a radiator for the AC. If so, it would only seem to be serving no purpose now and is blocking the a considerable amount of air flow to/through the primary radiator. Any thoughts as to if it might help to remove this radiator?
I've did a half way job of washing out the radiator with a water hose, but that did not seem to help.
Should I remove the radiator and have it 'boiled' out?

Thanks for any suggestions
Stacy
