Hi All. Had to disconnect the negative pole of battery this morning and now no tickover 
It starts on the button but will not idle. I have re-checked all the little connectors which are all tight and secure. Any suggestions will be VERY welcome

Sorry. I was intending to replace the VSS and disconnected the negative. Everything was perfect before then. Couldn't do the VSS, so reconnected everything onto the negative terminal. Fires fine - just no idle.

Sorry guys - not being very specific am I! It's a 24v saloon 95{N]. Everything (apart from the VSS) was OK until I disconnected the battery.

hi there
dis-connecting the battery with make the car re-learn all it's values again.
as asked, will it run with a little gas?
maybe take the idle bypass valve off and give it a clean.

Panic over Guys. Changed the VSS, gave it a good run and lo and behold - it ticked over, a bit lumpy though, so cleaned the idle control - perfect! Phew!!!
Thanks to all who replied and tried to help.
Cheers
