Ben:

Have you noticed a loss of power associated with your overheating issue? If yes, then check the head gasket or the valve adjustment. My old 84 300SD began overheating and the same time I noticed a loss of power. All the cooling system components checked out OK. It turned out to be the head gasket was leaking and thevalves needed adjustment.
