Start by flushing the cooling system. Search for Shoebox... he has the process outlined on his site.
Then make sure you bleed the system to get all the air out. Then let's go from there.

Go to shoebox's website, he has a great writeup on cooling problems and trouble shooting. then make him a paypal donation for solving all your problems

The car seems to cool down if I put it in neutral and coast also If I park it leave it running with the heater on then if cools to about halfway mark.
