lumpy and hunts :(

I have cleaned and swopped the icv to no avail.
I have ordered a new grommet to hold the speedo cable in as it's perished
I've kind of come to the conclusion that it's todo with the breather side of things as it goes as it should when driven just wont stay at a set speed without juddering and idle is lumpy and hunts about. Most of the breather hoses have been changed so with this in mind does anyone have any clues?

cheers in advance
Bollocks to this 24v scrap!

Rob,

I'll stick that spare AFM in the post to you tomorrow, plus a spare intake boot for you to try.

When doing the breather hoses did you also replace the gaskets?
