I've just fitted one that has been sat in a box for 3 years.
It looked pretty clean but when I start the engine from cold, the revs are sitting around 500 rpm and when warmed threw, the instant mpg is a little high at 0.4 - 0.5 g/mile .

Have checked for air leaks and non found so i'm thinking that the icv is a little stiff.
I have no 3in1 oil or similar so will a squirt of plus gas do the job ?

Hiya  it might help the instant consumption,it the breather box and plenum is given a good clean

All done already 
Thanks anyway

Plus gas might help release the valve but it will eventually dry out, so be sure to get some 3in1 or gun oil asap.

I've got some gun oil 
I'll give it a brush of that

Just a couple of drops will see it right.

Will do
