In my opinion, if your leak stops when the engine warms up you may be able to retorque it and stop the leak. Chances are the head is warped a little, so if you do take it off to fix it, get it resurfaced. As far as the temp issue, remember it is a diesel and they love to crack heads, so you are better off with the lower temp. If you are certain that you need to get it warmer make sure your new guage is working correctly and DO NOT restrict the bypass, also be very careful when changing thermostat temps. If it gets too warm one time you may be looking for someone to weld the head for you. Good luck!
