Heres what happened as it happened frank.
Removed airbox and exposed the TB.
Saw that my throttle cable was very slack (about 1cm give before tension), redid the nuts on the threads that gauge how close cables end is to TB.
Accidentally did them a bit too much, thinking raising the actually throttle level was a good way to fix the idle. Quickly realised how stupid this was, and then reset the throttle cable to an improved position were there is no slack but idle is still low (started hunting for rpm up and down while idling when it was too taut)
Still idles at low RPM but I'm only a n00b and my test is in 12 hours, can't be destroying the thing before I drive it. Afterwards however, I will be waiting a month before I can insure and run it myself, in that time my car and be fiddled.
I think this is just how it is naturally! I feel maybe I should just leave it. ps. Its a Y542 plate? Does that mean I got the year wrong?
Also, I will be looking to buy an OBD2. Thanks.
