Idle goes up and down
I have a problem with my automatic 94 Civic EX. After i drive my car for a bit and put it in park or neutral, my RPMs go up and down from about 1000-1500 RPMs.. What could it be??

This happened recently after i replaced my head gasket, i did it myself but i know i did everything right and put it back together right. Someone has also told me it could be the Air Control Valve.. could that be it?

I have the same problem, Messing with the engine prior points to something that would have had to changed post head gasket change, I would first check vacuum lines, make sure all the clamps are snug and you put them all back on correctly.

Im not gonna start listing out the tons of different things it could be. Might as well send him on a wild goose chase if thats the case. You really need to either acquire a OEM service manual or download one and diagnose it yourself, or take it to a mechanic. This isnt something that can be diagnosed over a message board

96 and under civics have the fast idle thermo valve.
That is most likely your issue since you said it happens once it is warm..
Try bleeding your coolant system for starters.

I took off the IACV and cleaned it out, and i also bled the coolant system and it still runs the same
