Idle Gone!

So, just now I went to move the car to get into the attic in my garage. Battery a little dead, so I jumped it off a charger. Car started fine but will now not tick over without throttle. All seems well other than this.

 

Do you think I am correct in assuming ICV is playing silly buggers and I should go for an ECU reset? (Battery off for 30m)

 

Ta in advance

Remove and clean icv. They're easy enough to do.

Ok, quick squirt of GT85 into the ICV, waited 30 mins and all is well.

 

WP, tick over is showing 14.37/8/9 volts
