Today I was using my 1965 Nuffield 10/60 Tractor. After about 30 minutes use, the engine block was so hot that it could boil water. The oil dipstick was even hot enough to boil water. The coolant was full and was operating at the normal operating temperature. This has never happened before. Any ideas?

If this is not the best website to answer questions about tractors, does anyone have any ideas where I can look?

Thanks,
Jeff
