My 93 Accord SE runs at normal temperature for a while, then the gauge
drops to Cold, then back up a bit, then down again.

The car runs well. I had this problem last winter and the water pump
was replaced, I also replaced the thermostat. Since last winter the
car has run well, then this behavior began again today.

Could it be the temperature gauge, sending unit, or something else?
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Regards,

Tom

could be just the sender unit connection. check the leads are fastened
correctly.

The sensor can intermittently touch coolant if bled improperly.
