Default ICV needs cleaning ??

on a 95 classic, at idle,the rev needle sits nicely at 900 rpm,doesnt flutter or fluctuate yet the car feels like its missing slightly,when the bonnet is up,the engine looks like it is moving more than it used to (like a slight misfire) then sometimes it smooths out and the engine purrs and doesnt move/vibrate so much

its only slight,when pulling away no issues/spluttering etc,just at idle this slight misfire feeling/car vibrating more

whats involved with cleaning the ICV,brake cleaner ??

cheers

cheers for the link,had a quick read on page 1 of how to remove the ICV etc,didnt realise this actually governed the actual idle speed,thought that was ECU set, but it says twisting it left/right highers/lowers the idle hmmm !! learn something new everyday LOL

cheers again
