Once warmed up my97 sti goes from 1000 to 1300 for a while then back again. Also it stinks of boiling water. The head gasket has just been done, before that the car was running hks air filter, fuel pressure reg, and standard downpipe it now has panel filter decat downpipe, blitz r exhaust, no fuel pressure reg. Any ideas?

i have cleaned the MAF sensor and my Idle control valve, but still have the same problem. it was fine for about 2 minutes. i did an ECU reset but could take the car for a drive as its got no tax at the mo. new MAF sensor it is then i guess :-(
