Air lock ?
As above, and in particular check that you get the air out of the
thermostatic idleup valve under the throttle body. Apparently if this
is air locked it can lead to erratic idle... I don't really know why Confused

If bleeding air from the system doesn't solve the problem, I have
heard of many cases where cleaning and/or replacing the thermostatic
idle up valve has returned the idle to normal.

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one
persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress
depends on the unreasonable man.
