Cheers.for.(some.of).the.replies!:thumbs:
Okay,.after.first.locating.the.ICV.and.taking.it.off,.the.damn.thing.is.a.sealed
unit.with.a.small.bar/spring.mechanism.which.pushes.directly.on.the.throttle
cable.pulley!
So,.a.completely.different.design.to.the.20XE.one,.nothing.to.open.up.and.
clean:(
Going.to.try.swapping.it.for.another.at.some.point.over.the.next.few.days
and.hope.that.sorts.it.;)

yea, i think they are either T20,T15,or T25 torx screws i think, but i dropped them a few times and they land ontop of the starter motor! this is on the 1.4 16v though, so its possibly different on the 1.0 12v

I believe it's to the left of the throttle cable, and is a stepper motor.

A.mate.is.having.trouble.with.his.corsa,.high.revs.at.idle,.hanging.revs.between
gear.changes,.first.thing.i.thought.of.is.the.ICV.
Now.i've.only.cleaned.an.ICV.on.a.2L.redtop.engine,.the.ICV.was.under.the
throttle.body,.easy.to.get.out,.washed.it.in.brake.cleaner.and.ran.a.current
through.to.open.and.close.the.valve.and.get.all.the.sh1t.out.of.it.
Can.anyone.tell.me.where.the.ICV.is.on.the.1Litre.corsa.engine,.how.difficult
to.get.out.and.is.it.the.same.method.for.cleaning?
Any.nasty.suprises.lurking.for.me.when.I.attempt.this?
