240 series had some heating probs-def change your thermostat-and if you want to eliminate 99% of your heating probs-get your radiator rebuilt with 3 rows of tubes from the orginal 2 rows-- I did and never have heating probs now! Check your water pump also--and make sure fan belts and hoses in good condition-and belts are properly tightened. BTW-if you don't do all that stuff and it starts to get too hot on your trip-open your heater all the way--the extra circulation can help-you may get hot-but will help your engine to cool down a little bit--usually.
