Did you bleed the system? Could this be from air in the system?

EDIT: I would do a search

You're stopping the flow through the heater core when you turn the heater off. Apparently, the flow of water and/or air through the radiator is not enough by itself. It seems that you are in over your head here and probably need to seek professional help.

I think there's a good chance that your replacement electric fan is not moving enough air.

THANK YOU. I was thinking the same, now ill go that route.
should the fan be pushing or pulling?
