Kubota tractor L3250 overheating

[Hhinai4]

Hi team,
I have a kubota tractor L3250, i’m having overheating issue with it,i have changed water pump, head jasket and thermostat with original parts from kubota dealer. Team any idea you can added so i can solve this issue.

I'm assuming an overheating event required the head gasket replacement?
The only thing left I can think of is the radiator. Perhaps send it out for testing and reconditioning, or just replace.

Thank you RjCorazza,
But radiator was reconditioned like 2 years back. Is there any chance that over heating due to injectors failure or hydraulic oil over fill.?

If you have a pressure tester you can fill the system, pressurize it and check for leaks. Overheating issues are usually either the system isn't allowing the pressure to reach the proper amount or a thermostat which you've replaced already. You can also test the cap because a failed cap will not let it reach pressure and cause overheating

Airflow? IS the radiator clean? The screen in front of the radiator? The holes in the grill?

I do alot of bushhogging for hire....and especially in the fall when the weeds release all their fuzzy seeds, its not uncommon to have to stop every 30 minutes to blow out the screen and radiator.

It may sound like a stupid question, but did you check to see if the radiator was clogged with debris? It happened to my Kubota. The pre-screen doesn't stop the small stuff.
Sometimes the simple answer is the right one.

No need to remove it and send it to a shop.

Just look at it and see if you can see through it or if its plugged with weed seeds, chaff, pollen, etc. Air compressor and blow gun nozzle work wonders.

What were you doing recently that caused the overheat? Mowing/bushhogging weeds?

Also, blow from the backside with a wand. To check how clean it is, put a light on the back side and see if the light shows through.
