Default loss of Rpm, 800 to 400ish at idle.

The M42 picked up a rough idle hot and cold.

sits at 800 then drops to 400, then back to 800.

Throttle response is still good, and no problems while with gas pedal response.

Check all your hoses.
The IVC sounds about right too.
Try cleaning it.
Good luck finding out what it is.

Hope my old thread helps.

Here you go.
Mine's auto, and I know that yours is 5 speed, so that might not be your problem.
I hope it could help you though.
