Cheers, Ali. Car sorted, it was the main bolts securing the throttle body to the manifold. I used liquid gasket and really cranked them down and now it idles beautifully. Going for a test drive now. Wink

One slight problem; It idles perfectly but when driving the revs tend to stay high and only slowly return to normal when in neutral. So you come up to a junction, come out of gear and the revs take about 15 seconds or more to drop down to 800 rpm idle tickover. Any ideas?
