First, find the problem.
When the engine is running, whenever it reaches the temperature of the thermostat, that thermostat is supposed to open, allowing the hot coolant to flow to the radiator, to maintain proper engine temperature.
The thermostat could be stuck closed, needing replacement.
Whenever the engine gets warm, there is also an electric fan in front of the radiator, to cool the hot coolant in the radiator.
This fan works off a sensor that is ******* into the engine block (whose function is to read the engine temperature) and sends an electric signal to the electric fan to start when needed.
The sensor could be bad, the fan motor could be bad, and there is a relay in the system that could be bad also.
God bless your efforts.

My car heater works when car is running down the road but blows cold air when idling also car is overheating

Low on coolant? Often the cause of poor heater performance. Also a reason for overheating. Be careful, overheating can lead to expensive repairs, engine wise. I would not be driving the car until the overheating is solved.

Sounds to me like you are having a cooling system problem, if water is boiling in the tank or radiator then the engine is overheating. If you have not flushed the cooling system, it would be a good idea to do so. Also you need to test the cooling system at idle and see if the engine will maintain normal temperature, without overheating. Overheating can be caused by plugged or restricted radiator, hoses, or the thermostat, also check the operation of the electric cooling fan. Once you solve the overheating you light should stay off. If you do not solve the overheating soon, the engine will suffer major damage, so check it out very soon. Hope this helps, let me know.

If it's overheating it will lose antifreeze.I would change the thermostat first and see it it solves the overheating problem if not then worry about the water pump. Thermostats are only $7-10.

79 with 305 overheating.

Replace the thermostat too... probably less than $10 bucks. It's a common overheating culprit. I hope this nails it for you... Good luck.
