Quote.....So I expected the heating to be a bit better too, but unless I crank up the inside temp demand to say 78f, the heating is lukewarm, even though the engine temp gauge shows a reliable normal temp...

In addition to the other problems you may have. Another cause of "Luke warm" heat from the heater could be a silted up Heather matrix, a common problem on these cars.
i recently suffered from "Luke warm" heat, So I removed the heater matrix and gave it a good flush (How to in the files).

Now it give gives a good heat and I currently run the heater at 21/22 C.

A word of warning you have to be fairly mobile(Agile) to do this and have the patience of a saint to reconnect the pipe work. It is a P.I.T.A
