1993 Toyota Corolla Front Wheel Drive Manual

i have toyota corrolla 93
recently changed radiator(ran dry from hole in radiator ), now since it came back from garage the rpm goes between 1000 to 1500 when clutch is pressed and car is moving,
when the car is idling it seems ok. But I had to adjust rpm higher to stop the engine cutting out?

If this happened after the radiator change, then the shop most likely forgot to connect a vacuum line or inadvertantly knocked one off.

Also if car was run dry for any period of time, you may have a headgasket problem.
