Default Idiling and Temperature Problem.. help

Ive got a 92 civic hatch with a jdm b16a swap and sometimes when my car is just sitting, it idles from 1-2k rpms, and also when i go up hills, my temperature drops to cold but goes back up once im up the hill... any ideas of what this is?

Another vote for "bleed your coolant".

I second that vote.

Probably won't fix your idle problem but it is a likely cause of your temperature fluctuations. You have an air bubble stuck there and when going up a hill it probably moves to where your sensor is.
