Brilliant news Karl40
Funny enough iv just been looking on Brickwerks for the Ignition amplifier
i had changed the fuel pump push rod yesterday and today noticed that the oil tower hadnt been bolted down properly whilst i was checking out the fuel enrichment valve to make sure the diaphram wasnt knackered (it never ends lol), - so sorted that and was looking for air leaks etc as you do, when i reconnected the ignition module and tried her and she was better but then later on problem came back!
im on the hunt to ... anyway glad it all worked out
I have a 1.9 DG Petrol Watercooled Panel Van 1990 ... that im starting to believe has issues!!!!

Hi Novice in need

Sorry for butting in but i have had pretty much the same issues and am currently suspecting the idle cut off valve!
See post https://club8090.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=80776

Would be interested in hearing if the ignition amplifier solves your issue...

I have a spare amplifier i could lend u if your near me ?
