I straightened out fins in front of my radiator as best I could and hoses down all the radiators. I then pulled my car trailer with my 33 hp tractor and it was fine down the highway. But while traveling at slow speeds and lugging up hills I hit 212-220 degrees often. It takes a while fir the temps to drop. Is this a flow problem. I have plenty of fluid in my radiator
