car revs on its own, temperature stays at cold. causes/fixes?

So i posted a thread earlier this morning about my radiator smoking up. Now after taking a second look at my car i begin to notice how my temperature gauge isnt moving, just stays at cold. The car slso seems to rev up and down on its own after driving a bit. Any ideas?

Do you have a thermostat? Maybe there is no thermostat installed

It sounds like a bad T-Stat or no t-stat like SSMCL9 said.
