Default heat issues

I replaced the thermostat in my 99 LS with an OEM Honda thermostat. When I'm driving I'm usually around 190 degress. When I stop or sit for awhile I drop to 150 degrees and I do not get much heat blowing out of the vents. Do I have air in the system? Or something else?

Thanks ahead of time.

Did you bleed the system after you installed the new thermostat?

The only thing I did was I let the car run with the radiator cap off until I saw the fluid drop then added more until it was full. If you are refering to something else, then to answer your question, no. I do not have a service manual. How do you go about doing this?

That should help you ^. It may be beneficial to jack the front of the car up and turn your heater on during the bleeding (which is the process you've done already). Sometimes it take a few tries to get every thing out.
