I agree with JD Browning’s answer. On the overheating though, does it sound like the exhaust is blowing a little? Check the exhaust / muffler bolts / nuts are tight. If not they could be letting hot gases past the deflector plate and feeding them straight back into the fan. It is something I’ve had happen twice (on a Husqvana) both od which have ended up with the need to replace the piston and cylinder!

The easiest way to cool off in your garden this summer is to create a cool space and add some shade from the sun. Adding a patio awning or veranda awning can instantly add some shade and cool down your garden with minimal effort.
Plants also cool the landscape directly through the process known as transpiration. When the surrounding atmosphere heats up, plants will often release excess water into the air from their leaves. By releasing evaporated water, plants cool themselves and the surrounding environment. “It`s like sweating.
When trees and plants “sweat,” they cool themselves andcan cool the surrounding air. Through a process called transpiration,water and nutrients are taken up by plant roots from soil and delivered to the stem and leaves as part of photosynthesis.
Trees and other plants help cool the environment, making vegetation a simple and effective way to reduce urban heat islands. Trees and vegetation lower surface and air temperatures by providing shade and through evapotranspiration.
The water absorbed by the roots is transported up to the leaves where stomata are present. Stomata open during the daytime and increasing temperature results in loss of water in the form of vapours. This is similar to the sweating process that occurs in humans. It cools the plants during high temperature.
cooling plant means a facility designed to reduce the flesh temperature of perishable products from the ambient temperature to the carrying temperature prescribed in regulation 41 and to maintain the latter temperature; Sample 1Sample 2Sample 3.
Most plants suffer when the weather turns hot enough for a certain period of time. It causes irreversible damage by way of plant function or development. This isn`t merely droopy leaves in the heat of the afternoon; it`s things like stunted growth, leaf drop, leaf scald, failure to flower, or failure to produce seeds.
Heat stress is often defined as a period in which temperatures are hot enough for a sufficient period of time to cause irreversible damage to plant function or development. Plants can be damaged by either high day or high night temperatures and by either high air or soil temperatures.
During periods of extreme heat, leaves curl and plants wilt when roots are unable to supply sufficient moisture to the stems and leaves. This occurs because moisture is evaporating from the leaves faster than the roots can supply it. Wilting for short periods of time does not harm plants.
Crops like beans, beets, herbs, lettuce, onions, potatoes, radishes, squash and tomatoes are good options for first-time gardeners. Start small with just a few crops that are easy to grow and care for.
Water it regularly and wait for the temperature to drop. (Turning will mix the ingredients and speed it up too.)
