It ain't.

Dave, first check the Temp II sensor for correct response, its termination for security and its wiring for continuity. If all that is kosher, then methodically go through the Idle Stabiliser System. Should you not have a Bentley manual, now is the time to spring for one. And, when wading through that morass some call the Archives, take care to only change parts VERIFIED as defective.
