None of these cases indicates the mentioned the water distribution tube being checked. They sometimes are stuck in the motor and hard to remove without making a tool. But at least shove a long rod into the thing to verify it isn't full of muck.

A first step diagnostic is to buy a hand held digital thermometer (looks like a gun) and check for hot spots. In the old days the only easy way to fix these problems was to tape remote thermometers all over the motor. That still may be required if the thing only heats up on the road.
