My high idle was the throttle position switch faulty.
Basically it wasnt recognising the throttle was closed( microswitch fault internally)

While it was running, thought i'd test the icv, got home from work with the car idling at 1200 and surging, went round and unplugged the ICV and idle dropped to 850 V smooth :)
