Was just drivin home when the revs suddenly dropped. About 10 mins later it was doing it every few seconds so i was studdering along with the revs dropping on and off. Sound almost like a flatspot.

Got it home and left to idle but it still kept dropping every so often and just about managed to keep idling.

Left it a few mins and then restarted and idled fine and didnt drop.

Any ideas?

idle sensor valve mate, had it in my 106, would be doing 70 in 5th and all of a sudden it would die even if I had my foot flat lol.
