This is from the car when the engine was cleaned a while back:
I will take closeups of any areas needed.

Close ups of the back of the engine bay would be better, near where the throttle cable ends and around where the air inake goes in sort of area.

Can't really be sure from the pics. Take it to your local garage and ask if they would kindly point it out to u, or take a trip over the mountain and see mr Tree im sure he would be happy to help u out. Or maybe sum1 else can tell from the pics???

Had a quick google around and found this... Unfortuantely for a different engine, but might help point you in the right direction to see if there is a similar plug around that area!

Just change a Foucs Rs ISCV last week. Inlet Manifold off job. Cant get to it from underneath (I had a ramp). Takes around an hour or so to do.
Focus Rs never idle anyway! Mine staled 247. You can clean the valve out, or get a new one (very dear). Your not running a dump valve are you? As the engine hates them and will stall every where!

When did you fit the induction kit?
Could mess the air to fuel ratio I suppose, rules it out if its been fine for months though.
