Hi guys, I do not know if this is okay but starting up from cold and about 10 - 15 minutes after, when sat stationary the revs can creep a little even though my foot is not near the accelerator.....any ideas...

Probably just over 1000 revs until warm?

Yea sounds fine to me mate, 10-15mins might be an over estimation?
But from memory it will sit at about that for 5mins or so
Then once its warm drop down to about 800 or so

Does anyone have a picture of how to locate the throttle body and how to clean it properly? Thank you
