    off and drive before engine warms up after you stop or push in clutch rpms
    jump up and down till its warm it is a constant 1500- 2200 rpms up and
    down any ideas?

    --------------------------

    First, you're supposed to start driving before the engine warms up. It's
    in the manual. Fill the rad to the top with Honda premix. Fill the
    reservoir to MAX with Honda premix. Tap water is called 'hondacide'.

    Check the reservoir each morning and top as the engine 'sips' coolant
    when it cools. This is to replace the air it expels when hot. This might
    solve your problem without any further intervention.
