'M' reg Xantia, petrol, poor idle.

<font face="Arial"><font face="Impact"><font color="blue">Got this idle problem on a 16 valve xantia, and i'm fishing for new ideas! It runs ok but if you let it idle when warm it eventuly slows down then stalls. Had the ECU memories read and no faults recorded and also checked the air/water temp signals are ok. Also the manifold senser ok. Plugs are citroen approved and brand new. I am going to look at the idle valve next but run out of time![:)]</font id="blue"></font id="Impact"></font id="Arial">

Im no expert but in these cases the stepper motor is usualy mentioned as a possible culprit.
