new to me::84 240 diesel issues 200 1984

just bought this 84 240 diesel last week. has over 204k and i noticed today that the odo doesn't work...i'll fix that later. it's got new glow plugs and a new alternator belt. the interior is real clean. needs a new master p/w switch. all it needs is new tires, new exhaust, and replace a couple bulbs. my only issue is that the car wants to run rather warm when i'm cruising. doin around 70mph or so the temp gauge is past the 3/4 mark, but goes down a lil when i slow down. the temp stays up past the 1/2 mark...which is scary, so idk what the problem could be exactly. what is the actual way to check/flush the coolant since i couldn't find a radiator cap. and my other question is....where can i get the oil filters at? the diesel motor has 2 oil filters and i didn't know if fram carried them because the books aren't showing anything but the short, fat filter....but i also need the longer, bigger filter too. i plan on running rotella 15-40 but need to get the oil filters first. :) and i would like to know if anyone has a downloadable fsm for a 84 240 diesel too....?? any help would be great. thanx, patrick
