Cheers Lambert,   what vac hose you thinking? , I checked the  PSV on the back left of the rocker cover, and it  seems to be fine (it actuates when i put my finger over when running)   i read here that the AIC valve on the side of the throttle body can be the problem?   ive a much cleaner one on my donor car i could swap.  would that be a next step?   shes in for an MOT today so i,m hoping that wont be rotton beyond test.
