the air regulator unit has been all cleaned out and is sparkling, it's the air regulator unit gasket that causes the high idle. (i re-used it) but like i said, it's been idling high for a good 6 months and doesn't really bother me (it's only sits at about 1200). the mssing and stalling etc. has only been playing up for a couple of weeks.

The opening in the air reg should be shut when the car is hot and be open when cold.. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
