Cool running TC35

Look at this post, maybe you have the thermostat ball problem.

Very possible,hate to take apart a nice new tractor though. Maybe we will let the dealer have it back, after we see what else is going on,not many hours on it yet.

Ah yes, I forgot about that problem. Didn't see it on mine but know other Boomer owners have. At this point I'd almost bet that's what's going on here. With everything operating properly, the big Boomers should get to the middle of the temperature range in about 10 to 15 minutes of easy running.

Well, as you may have noticed, the picture of the thermostat with the bypass pin stuck and holding it open is mine too. I had both problems. There are several ways to check that the thermostat is stuck open, but the best way is to get your dealer to check it at the 50hr service check. /w3tcompact/icons/clever.gif This seems to be a common problem with this thermostat. If you get this corrected, I think you'll notice your tractor heating up to normal range. It's hard to tell with only an "idiot" light, but when my thermostat was open, the tractor barely budged off the lower stop of the gage. It's not good for a diesel to run this cold. Good luck.
