thermostat ford 2600

[jimbobs61]

My Ford 2600 (diesel) runs hot and shuts down after about and hour of use. I've learned to go to the barn before it shuts down. After cool down it's ready to go for another hour. I replaced fuel filter; no change. Thought I would replace thermostat but after draining radiator and taking off hose I can't see where it goes. Can you help a rookie? Jim

Well I found the thermostat site; I was looking at the wrong water hose. Got the new one in OK; works fine. If the problem comes back, i will post again for advice. Jim
