JD8760
I have purchased a used JD8760 recently which seems to overheat randomly. I use 50 antifreeze solution. There seems to be excess pressure in the rad. I have blown out the rad, changed thermostats, and replaced the water pump. Does anyone have any suggestions or had this issue?

Do you have to add antifreeze often . If so you may have a blown head gasket . That will cause alot of pressure in the rad. It will blow out the coolant

It might be the clutch fan. A guy I know had to replace his because it was overheating on his 8760.

Yes it may be . Sometimes we overlook the basics . Maybe that is what it is.
