Been working on it all day, and good news is I have solved the fuel leak, as you say simon it was just a corroded pipe. But the running issue is still there.

Moved onto removing the bailey DV in favour of OEM recirc which was a job I wanted to do anyhow, but that hasn't helped either.

Cleaned out Idle speed control valve which was filthy, but that didn't help.

Have already changed plugs and leads without success.

I have noticed the running is worse and more pronounced when cold. So back to thinking along the line of electrical. And altough the Lambda was clearly doing something as voltages were moving, perhaps the lambda, or coil pack. ?.

Was also wondering if there is a cold start valve on scoobs ?. Whats the black thing just below the ISCV ?.

Cheers
