Another update:
Pump is whiring in second click key position.
Earths appear intact.
Have now again taken the airfilter hose off and trying to watch the butterfly behaviour.
Appears to be completely shut at start-up, even though the throttle actuator is whiring and holds lock to the butterfly.
When idling, it still looks prety closed to me, until pressing the accelerator pedal where it seems to opperate fine.
Engine runs fine, plenty of power etc. appart from slight jolt of power sometimes when pressing the pedal.
Eh?

Checked the throttle position sensor?

I think that is inside the actuator unit, not like an external pot as usual.
What do you suggest to check?

It's been great help to hear from all of you!
The car runs smoothly and starts every time.
All your input is appreciated!
