Idle dropping

Idle dropping
Hi,
Have a slight issue with the idle on my classic uk turbo, when slowing down at traffic lights etc the idle drops to 500-600rpm then rises again to normal 800rpm. It doesnt cut out and the revs dont go above 1000rpm.
Today i have fitted a new MAF, checked hoses, cleaned the ICV (which was filthy) fitted new panel filter and done an ECU reset but the issue is still there?
Is there anything else worth checking? Any way to check the ICV is working properly?
The engine is standard other than panel filter and prodrive intercooler hose kit.

I found my plugs were a little loose when this was happening on mine - took the plugs out to check them and they were only finger tight. I know they'd been fitted properly as I did them myself so I have to assume that they need checking more often

When its warm I notice it, usually as im slowing to a standstill, the revs dip and then recover and it dips again slightly but doesnt stall.
Sometimes it they also hang at about 1000rpm before dropping to 800rpm again when warm and at standstill.
