Wanted; Zetec ICV

Has anyone got an idle control valve for a blacktop Zetec knocking about for beer tokens ?

My Mondeo tintop seems to be having problems deciding what it's idle speed should be, it's not too bad at the mo' but seems a bit hesitant to start in sub-zero temps.

So, I wanna start with the easiest and cheapest part to replace, 'cos knowing my luck it'll be the most difficult and expensive bit thats actually knackered

Cheers, Tony

Have you tried cleaning it first?

Nope, I'm too old to be lying on me back in the street in February
You can clean ICVs but it's only a temporary measure, I may as well swap with another and hope never to have to do the job again
It's a PITA job on a Mondeo, access is from underneath..
