I'm no mechanic but when I changed my thermostat I had to "bleed" it. It kept fluctuating until I did this. All you do is loosen/remove the bolt that says do not touch when hot, then you keep adding coolant to the radiator until you get a steady flow of fluid coming out of that bolt, close everything up and wah lah...
