Replaced Engine Hunting Idle

I just replaced the engine in my 2002 Civic LX with an 85,000 mile engine. When I started it for the first time, it idled fine for about 3 minutes then started cycling between 1300 and 2300 RPM at about 1 second interval. The idle speed is constantly varying between these RPM. It also appears to be running hoter than my older Civics. Any suggestions?
