Any chance you could reword and expand upon your question a little so that I can work out what you're asking ?

Must get myself a mobile phone one of these days so that I can understand this text language :wink:

Is the issue worse when the engine is cold or is it the same regardless?

could be a sticky valve in throtlebody (sp?).


id start by applying wd40 to acc cable on the outside of same.
if it makes no difference check tb for gunk and other nasty things around the butterfly seal.
