1) Welcome to the Zone!

2) You're best off asking these sorts of questions in the Tech Forum; your question might get buried in here

3) There's a very high chance it's the air slide valve:

what year is the car?

could be the air slider valve under the inlet manifold sticking.

take it off and blow threw it make sure it fine, also check for something simply like sticking throttle cable.

Thanks guys the new one arrived in 6 days from germany and yes that was the problem ,
i can now get the rest of the car in good order for the sunny weather thanks again Also i like the new facia design interesting thought andy
