Looks to me like it might get caught on it. They dont do anything useful anyway, well im sure they did when they worked but i think they're all shot now.

I thought as much. No probs. What is the purpose of the plunger out of interest? Cold idle control is a different bit so can't understand what it could do

Its literally to stop the throttle slamming shut, to supposedly make the throttle smoother, it doesnt work right and they are perfect without it. Just a throttle buffer.

When I went down to lobb land with the 206 for its first run, I barely had the bonnet open 2 minutes and Darren was in there with a spanner unbolting stuff off the pump...he violated my tidy, original Bosch pump :S
though it went a lot better on the way back.
