Default overheat problem

95 accord ex pulling hills temp rises quick and running down the highway, if you put the heat on full it will pull it back down into the normal range. I flushed the radiator, put a new thermostat but still have the problem also bled the air out, pretty sure I got it all out, I just can't seem to figure it out any help would be much appreciated Thanks

Is it coming on when it's supposed to when the engine's on with ac off? I think it's around 220 degrees with the Accords.

Are you losing any coolant? Coolant reservoir has coolant in it?

no loss of coolant or any extra over flow in the expansion tank, I tried to bleed more air out and the next day it stayed at a normal temp until the outside temp got up to about 85 now today a rainy cool day it stayed normal

Ask me about this overheating, hopefully bleeding the system will resolve the issue, else it's a PITA.
