I have had my car in storage for about 8/9wks, I have not started it or nothing but was running fine when i stored it,

Went to start it today for the 1st time, And rev's go to about 2000rpm, Then drop to around the 900rpm mark and check light comes on and hunting , I did fault code read 23/24, I have cleaned both the sensor's but still doing it, As i said car was running 100% before could it be something else ?

And are there any test i can do to check if Maf or Valve.

Could be damp around the maf wiring/plug. Worth a shot of wd40

If say idle control valve seized up. Mine does it if i leave it any length of time. Remove it and soak it overnight in wd40. Then clean and make sure it moves ok.

How much of the valve do i need to remove, The top part with the 2 small screw's or the whole lot from the manifold ?.

Mines a newage and only has two screws bolting it to the throttle body. Remove it all and soak it. Make sure the plunger moves freeley
