RE: Over heating 2.5
is the engine vents plugged with dirt/grime. that will cause temps too, check for head gasket leaks/glowplug leaks, also check the carb for airleaks... sounds like your lean for some reason. air leak would be where im looking.

RE: Over heating 2.5
Check the o-ring around the gas cap. It can get worn and not seal off the gas tank properly. This is a common problem and one of the easiest to fix.
