When you say block the cooling, where do they tend to block up?They got there issues like any other IMO.
cooling could have been better, its okay but dont take much to block them up.
Despite the common 90 deg gearbox issues the MLT 634 is miles better machine imo
was lots of changed to the 627 during production so would need to be a bit more specific on the age and spec if you want gory details
Keep the rad cleanWhen you say block the cooling, where do they tend to block up?

Yeah we used to remove air con rad as no chance of cooling properly with that on, got a 627 with head gasket gone here now, probably get the rad flushed when thats being doneRads a bit small and on later ones the design of it is easier to block with dust etc. Although the later one is more solid so you can blast it as hard as you like.
When any manitou overheats and runs hot they knacker the inside of the water hoses. Starting with top rad hose first but in time will do all hoses including the cab heater hoses. They perish and crack internally and bits of rubber drop off that then start to block the top of the cores in rad internally.
Needs a good back flush to get them out when it happens.
Also difficult to clean rad when aircon is fitted.

What are your thoughts on Mlt 625. Is it big enough for general farm work, the small size is obviously an advantage for certain jobs.
