how did you get on mate?
i had a similar problem happen tonight, first time its happened in 5 years of ownership, thought i was getting away with it lol.
Drove up to the gf's house, no probs, half an hour later we bailed out for a trip to the chinese. Started car and just rev'd itself upto 3k and sat there, hadn't even put my foot on the pedal.
messed about with the revs but kept falling back to 3kish as if that was where it idled, no drop at all. checked the throttle cable wasn't sticking and turned all off again.
Tried again but this time shot up to 3k and bounced about like a nut, reving upto about 3.5k every second, losing the rag at this point cos i was starving and couldnt stop thinking about my chicken fried rice so turned it off again in despair.
"Right!!" i says "this fucker better work" and tried it again...sorted, idling perfect, i looked like i'd just found michael jacksons nose. and on i went to get my grub with a relieved gf, whos genuinely concerned about my welfare cos when things go wrong i lose the plot lol.
would like to have found out what it was tho, wee bugger better not play up when i'm sitting trying to look cool at the traffic lights.
