Thanks, checked all the vacuum hoses today and all are in the right places as far as i can see.

I checked the cel codes and the following came up....

7 - TPS
14 - Idle control
41 - Oxygen sensor heater circuit

i unplugged these when the engine was running to see which one would make a differance if any.

I have unplugged the ecu fuse to reset the ecu, so i can see what the 'real' fault is.
How long do i have to leave it to 'forget'?
