Engine Overheating Under Load

Trouble Shooting

• Check the air flow to the rad. Be sure it isn’t blocked by bugs no matter in good or bad weather.
• Check to be sure all axles are rolling freely. Therefore, be sure there are no brakes or tires dragging.
• Check the engine fan and belts to be sure they are operating properly.
• Check outside air temperature. If the air temperature is hot while you’re driving, gear down. 
• Turn off the air conditioning on steep grades in hot weather. This will help keep the engine cool.
• Check the oil and coolant levels when the engine is cool. Check for leaks.
