[Ne7ers] IACV (UPDATE)

I'm was playing again last night & twiddling, pulling & shoving wires & pipes
etc (with the iacv out & ignition on & off) I found a blue wire that looked as
if it was shorting at the back of the block (just tightly kinked & insulation
pressed in) BUT moving this wire caused the iacv to 'tremble' & move a bit,
this led to a sensor in the water rail & the spade terminal could be revolved
thro 120+ degrees!!!!!!!!!

I put everything back & started the engine. Moving the spade connector thro
the 120 degs caused the engine to increase or decrease revs.

Hoped this was the temp sender to ECU - BUT IT ISN'T - it's simply the temp
gauge wire (temp gauge doesn't & has never fluctuated, it stays @ 78/80)

I've ordered a new one form Caterham so when it arrives I'll fit it & reset
the iacv stepper motor (providing I've not totalled it) back to it's base idle
position and see wot happens.

"may be something to do with inducted noise?????" don't know???
