    Sounds like you may have a Vac leak. That will make your throttle erratic sometimes.

    In defence of terraclean, it doesn't claim to be able to help in situations like that.
    I don't like to say this, but maybe the garage is struggling to diagnose the issue and did a terraclean more in hope........

    That's what I said to them today Liam,well booked in on Monday as they said they wanted it for the day so let's hope it's sorted then,only thing I said I thought it could be is you can see little air bubbles in the fuel pipe but the mechanic said that's normal,I was under the impression they should be no air in it at all?.

    Diesel?
    The odd bubble going into the pump isn't anything to worry about, but a constant stream of big bubbles will undoubtedly cause bad running.
    I'd be looking for air getting into the system somewhere if so. Something like a leaky fuel line from the tank, bad seal on the fuel filter/lines to/from etc.
