The system needs to start out with the radiator, water jacket and lines very nearly purged of all air to function properly.

I took radiator cap off and it was full there, well I'm taking it in tomorrow to get it checked out. I have change jobs and are alot closer to home, I only drive about 10 mins to work, so this maybe the reason why the temperature is doing what it's doing I just thought of that.
