Update.... if anyone is still following

Newell engineers worked with a hydraulic company in Tulsa Oklahoma. 

Hydraquip 
4130 SE 70th Ave

918-663-3661

I’m working with that team to order a few new parts that have been discontinued (Vickers) and superseded with Eaton items. I’ll post info as I receive it. 

I’m hoping to speak with their engineer that works with Newell. I have a list of questions about the system that will help me understand, resolve the problem, and hopefully help others. 

I believe I have multiple issue impacting the cooling system. Cat thermostat stuck open? Hydraulic pressure issue? Stuck solenoid hydraulic valve? I haven’t run the engine at a RPM above 1000-1200 but I’m certain I’m not seeing the fan running on high speed. It has been described on this forum as “blow your hat off” but most recently it’s been described to me as “scary high speed and I’m not comfortable standing near the plastic fan”. 

So... when my engine gets warm I’m not getting the airflow through the radiator that is required. We’ll see.
