I overhauled my 720 diesel a few years back. Bored the block, planed the head, rebuilt injectors, rebuilt rack everything that needed replaced was. Tried starting it and it ran like a clock right off. I decided to put it to work and it overheated as soon as I pulled it. I thought maybe the new thermostat was bad so took it out. Still overheated. I finally decided maybe I should have had the radiator flushed. I pulled it off and found out there was a big old mouse nest in the top tank that plugged everything up. It wasn't in there when it came off the tractor but after sitting on the floor in the shop for a month, it made a good home for the mice to make a nest. I plug all the holes on anything sitting around after that episode. Thing is stuff happens no matter how carefull you are. I was lucky I didn't do a paint job on it right away and then have to pull the tin off again.
