Default Revs taken a while to come down

Has anyone got any ideas as to why sometimes when i stretch the gears sometimes it takes a while for the revs to come back down?

Also when i am at lights sometimes the car will rev a little higher to about 1k rpm or when i go to drive off he sputters a little bit, but all of this is not all the time, but when it happens it is annoying!!

Default Re: Revs taken a while to come down

Sounds like idle control valve, mine was sticking the revs would stay up for a few seconds, if i rev'd car up from under bonnet the revs would sit just over 1k then slowly drop, i found a tap withe a screw driver on side of idle control valve made the revs drop imediatly.
