    Idle problem

    Hi people,
    I'm having rough idle once the car in warm revs die right down the jump up and down its not vacuum leak or Maf anyone know of anything else that plays up? Also power steering gets noisy up pumps the fluid out the tank when hot....weird.. I've just the pump and still doing it. Any1 had these faults. Any feedback appreciated.

    Mine don't bolt to the manifold mines the earlier engine but I've bypassed the valve and the engine will still hunt so the problem is with something else. Cheers tho bud
