Heater - hot air only when moving

I have a 2002 4Runner with 166000 miles. The heater only blows hot air when the vehicle is in motion. When it is idling, even at a red light, the air goes back to cold, then when I drive it blows hot air again. Any thoughts on what the issue is? Thanks!

Do you have enough coolant? The rear lines can leak out without you even knowing it.

What's the water pump and timing belt status? The TB drives the WP.
