Your "overheating" problem could be as simple as a faulty water temp gage (it's happened to me with a couple different tractors...)
Before digging in too deep recommend checking the temp gage calibration: Remove the gage sender, stick it into a container of boiling water then note the gage reading. (If's it's an electric gage, remove the sender, reconnect the gage wire and hook up a temporary ground to the sender. Now dip the wired-up sender into a container of boiling water, turn on the ignition and note the gage reading.)
A good gage/sender will show 212 deg +/-5 deg or so with the sender immersed in boiling water.
