I will tell you what id try...next time you fill up add some engine cleaner/fuel system cleaner/power boost fuel additive...
If you goto your local car parts shop and explain you want the best fuel additive to give the engine and fuel system a good clean they should point you in the right direction...
Just follow the instructions on the bottle and it will take a full tank of fuel but its worth a try and the additive should be under a tenner easily
..
REDEX is a popular brand of additive.
NOX is also popular.
WYNNS aswell....
All brands sell different variations so you could be spoilt for choice so ask the staff.
Thanks, will do this tomorrow

(I appreciated the advice to go back to the other, but they didn't want my business!) I am now £220 worse off but have a new starter motor to show for it. I also have two holes in an air pipe diagnosed with instructions to get one from a scrap yard, as thats what is causing the revving by itself, which is back with a vengence, however....
It now starts when warm!!!!!
Thank you all for your advice.
