Fixed! New Idle Control Valve and Cam sensors (pulse generators)

Idle is now solid as a rock.

The engine is quieter too (don't know why, but it's good)

Throttle control on light pressure is back, there's no more hesistation problem.

Seems to use less fuel according to the fuel consumption meter on dash.

It's off the end of the scale at 60km in 4th gear (5 speed auto) without pressing on the throttle.
