Alright thank's.
So I finally got to drive it today , it had hot heat still idleing but when I left the house with in the first mile it started getting cold then it over heated again. It had hot heat all up till I actually drove the car. I looked at the oil and didn't seem to have any coolant in it and I smelt for sweet smell on exhaust but nothing there. Its not lost no coolant though the radiator is still full. Any other idea? Thanks.

It is air, or a bad head gasket plain and simple.

Make sure the heat is red hot (almost burning your fingers) at idle.

Make sure the heat is red hot while holding the engine at 2500 for 1 minute.

I just put my coolant bleed thread at the top of the forum.

If you are not following specific bleed sequences you will never get the air out. You may be one overheat too late.
