Well, I'm back from my trip. The car started easily, and once warm tickover was a steady approx 900 RPM. Stop-start driving for 5 miles, car behaved perfectly, no stalling.
Did my work, cutting grass and hedge, started car again easily and once warm tickover good again, around 900 RPM. Got about half way back, and car stalled, restarted and tickover rough and about 400 RPM, after a few seconds all was back to normal, 900 RPM smooth tickover.
Drove the last 2.5 Miles, no problem. Parked car, and tickover dropped to about 500 RPM, revved engine a little and tickover good again, smooth 900 RPM.
Opened bonnet with engine running and pulled off the wire to the idle valve, engine immediately stalled. Replaced wire, started engine and good tickover again.
