on an 8 valve it has a green body with a yellow sleeve and is on the thermostat housing, haynes manual doesn't mention the VTS engine, could be in a similar place.

It is on the back of the thermostat housing and has a green plastic connector. It is cheap (about £10-12 from Citroen) and easy to replace.

It might be the idle control valve that's doing it. Try unplugging it with the engine running and see if the revs stabilise.
