    You could’ve made this a YT short or a TikTok video by using a can of Stop Leak on the
    radiator & gas tank, then a tube of metal weld to fix that fan and claim it “ran when sold”…🤫
    But your common sense, ethics, & professionalism made it cost more, take much longer,
    & created another awesome video for your followers, not to mention a much better dozer
    for the new owner. (even if it is a Cat)😎

    Tired old mechanic is spot on with his diagnosis of the radiator core issue. Cat also fitted the larger cores onto our Cat units which are used in forestry fire suppression in addition to other pieces of equipment that were used in military operations within the Middle East areas of operations. By doubling the core size the engine's operating temperature is greatly reduced even when the cores are packed tight with carbon, dust, ash and tree litter. When the equipment is high on a mountain side it's the last place you want to have an overhearing radiator. Our dozers, skidders and excavators also have a secondary air compressor and a supply tank fitted so operators can blow the crap out of the cells. Our equipment gets hit by and work in areas where water bombers have dumped a clay based slurry of fire retardant directly onto the cat guards we have just opened up for that very same reason.

    We bought one of the first Cat IT 28 loaders in the early 80s. It had the folded core radiator. It would overheat when operating a broom so Cat replaced the folded cores with the thicker cores and I suspect that's what happened to that dozer too. While the folded core will fit in any position, there are two different square cores depending on the position they are in,

    Went through a similar ordeal with my D7E 48A last winter. Had a transmission oil cooler go and that was the beginning of the repairs. Ended up tearing into the front end deeper then I’d planed when I found play on the fan hub shaft. After many hours of sourcing parts making parts and fixing a few of the old parts it’s back up and running again. Sure a good thing you caught the fan blade while it was apart. Isn’t a fun job to do with the rad in. I pulled the cylinder cross support and cylinders off to do the job.

    I remember those fuel tanks in the weld shop in Bldg LL . That seam is a one time weld by line welders and when finished welded , then pressure tested in a 6x4x12 foot water tank . The tank had under water cameras and the inspector’s job was to look at all the welds for bubbles which you could see plainly . They pressurized the tank 3 times the normal pressure . He had a piece of black crayon marker and would mark the leaks and the repair welds would be conducted by a separate welder .

    With reference to your comment regarding using American made tools I totally agree.
    I far prefer to buy something made in the USA or Japan or sometimes Europe although I think nations bordering on or in the Pacific have declining commonality with Europe these days.
    But when I recently did some research on the internet it claimed that the parent company which currently owns Milwaukee is based in Hong Kong.
    It also said only a few Milwaukee tools are still made in the USA and many, are now made in communist China.
    Lower standards for materials and workmanship aside I avoid buying stuff made in communist China because I do not intend to contribute to maintaining the economic and military expansion and strength for an enemy of democratic freedom if I can avoid it.
