Issue: Engine Overheating or Coolant Leakage in Massey Ferguson Tractors (equipped with Perkins 1100 Series).

Diagnosis: Over time, vibration and heat cycling can cause rubber coolant hoses to crack or degrade. Specifically, check the top radiator hose (often P/N series 3482V...) and the bypass hose. A leaking water hose can lead to a rapid loss of coolant and catastrophic engine failure.

Solution: Inspect all hoses for softness, bulging, or cracking. Replace immediately if defects are found. We recommend using our high-grade silicone or reinforced rubber replacements (e.g., 3482V101 WATER HOSE) which offer superior resistance to heat and pressure compared to standard rubber. Ensure clamps are tight but not cutting into the hose.
