Why would my Kubota B 8200 HST always overheat. I have changed the rad. new thermostat, new belts change coolant yearly.and it still overheats, and this is not doing hard work. Could the impeller have spun off the water pump shaft?

No add ons the block heater is the in block type not in the hoses. I have never seen this type of problem on a motor before. Even winter operation of a snow blower 60 in. size,you have to watch the temp gage and this is on a cold day. This why I tend to believe the impeller amy have spun loose from the. To change the water pump you almost have to pull the rad, its pretty crowded is there. ....

The Kubota dealer in my area told me that this is not a common problem but he has seen it before where the keyway works loose. ....
