Default 89 crx b16 overheating issue

Okay this has me baffled. car never used to do this. it started happening after i did the clutch. regular driving my car wont overheat sitting a lights it wont either. but when i sit in stop and go traffic on the freeway it overheats but once i get the car moving good it cools down.

if i get off the freeway it will cool down as well.. Ive already tried to bleed all the air out of the system by running it with an open cap and there were alot of air bubbles but its still doing it.

cant remember if it has a thermostat or not.. im running a fluidyne 26in radiator. but i have only one electric fan (car came that way) havent seen any leaks and the fluid level is staying the same.

also there is hot air coming from the vents at all times.. i dont have the climate control unit installed on the car. (previous owner snapped it in half)
