Well after months of idle problems my car is finally sorted now yepeeeeeeee. £700.00 in taking it to various garages later and it turned out to be thestupid spring in my dump valve , apparently it wasnt strong enough and was caused due to the fitment of a 6 speed gearbox and lightened flywheel which upsett the vaccum settings in the throttle body , apparently the spring wasnt strong enough to keep the valve closed at idle. Who would of thought it ! ............ At least i got a new idle crontrol valve and lamba sensor out of it !  ( THAT STILL DONT MAKE ME FEEL ANY BETTER LOL )

I was out allday yesterday driving round and round and round , think i done 40 quid in petrol loved it and it was nice to have her back in my hand purring like a kitten. Baily motor sport the nice people have even kindly offered to rebuild my dump valve with a stronger spring for free of charge , now thats service . So now hopefully i can start enjoying and see some shows this year to , thanks trev and granby see you both soon :P

It was arratic in idle as if the air flow sensor had gone and also stalling after hard accelaration.  Hope this helps .  Good luck !!!! let me know how you get on .

I  have a super hks bov dump valve here thats just a few months old if you want to try it and see if it resolves your problem tony . Let me know fella . Also i have a large selection of air flow sensors as well . Not sure wat year you car is but worth letting you know because some times the air flow sensors can have the same symptons.
