[AT] Radiator plugging

[Cecil Bearden]

    Not an antique tractor, but an antique swather.   My early 80's late 
70's Owatonna/Gehl swather has a problem with the A/C condenser plugging 
with the fuzz off of Bluestem grass.  It has the perforated screen over 
the entier back of the engine compartment and I have replaced the seals 
around the screen as it is hinged to access the condensor , oil cooler, 
and radiator.  I have to clean off the condensor every 1.5 to 2 hours of 
running t keep the A/C in the cab cool.  I even sealed the edges with 
duct tape in case the fuzz was getting through the gasket..  It appears 
this stuff is so fine it goes through the perforations on that screen.   
It is a very fine screen too.    I spent an hour yesterday blowing out 
the radiator and condensor and the pile of stuff that came out of the 
radiator was amazing.  Engine seemed to run cooler too.
