I had a similar problem with my 1993 honda and had to change the radiator.

SOURCE: I have a 96 honda accord and the fan runs after I

That is normal but on the "long side" of normal. If the engine temp is good while driving, the temp sensor may be slightly out of range, but if its either very hot outside or the engine is running hotter than normal that can influence it as well. That part, you have to consider as I can't see what is going on there.

If the cooling fan shuts off after a few minutes with the ignition off, this is normal for most cars; it prevents hard starting in hot weather. If it fails to shut off after a reasonable period, say 10 minutes or longer, the relay for the fan may be faulty.

If doesn't come on during running and the gauge is in the normal range, this is also normal.
If it doesn't come on when the engine temp is above normal, the sensor for operation has failed. This is normally located on the bottom tank of the radiator and will have either one or two wires coming from it and most have a hex base for removal and installation. These are fairly common failures.

You may have a cracked head, block or blown head gasket that is leaking combustion gas into the cooling system. If you dont have a combution leak detector kit you can take it to a trusted mechanic tell them the problems you've had and the parts you've replaced. Ask them to check for a combustion leak in the cooling system. A minor combustion leak in the cooling system can sometimes mimic the symptoms of overheating.
