[AT] Question on Massey 255

[Len Rugen]

I've found that mine will heat up quite nicely if you plug the radiator 
with chaff while mowing.....

I have one, it will get up to a little dot in the green and stay there 
unless really pulling hard really hard, then it will go up a little 
more.  The thermostat isn't too hard to get to, compared to the water pump.

I don't think its ever been in the green "operating" range since I've owned it; I'm thinking the thermostat might be stuck open, but was hoping to hear from others before I tear into it. It is quite smokey also, which I would take for a symptom of running cold. Any thoughts.
