Did you bleed it properly...?

2nd i have a y1 tranny and 91 integra axles and when i started it my right
wheel started turning (i was in neutral)???????
Was the car on jackstands...? If so, that is normal...

3rd im idling too high 1500 to 2000 rpms, when i start it up it revs from
1000 to 2000 a couple of times and then the check engine light comes on
and it settles between 1500 and 2000 rpms
Not a clue...
