right take out the idle screw and give it a clean with some car cleaner... also spray inside where the screw sits, u should check the rubber seal on the screw isnt knackered either as an air leak will cause poor running... then spray inside the isv and start her up.. when warm take of blue temp sender and set idle to 100rpm then pug sender back in.. twhen this is done she should be fine.
