The Tom Townsend web site has a couple of pages on idle and 2.2 system.
One of them says, and I quote:
"...smack the AIC valve with a screw driver handle and see if it tries to smarten up after repeating the test.
IF so = the AIC valve may be sticking.
I HAVE TORN DOWN MALFUNCTIONING VALVE AND FOUND THAT ALL THREE BRUSH CONTACT POINTS AT THE COMMUTATOR HAVE BURNT HOLES INTO THE COMMUTATOR. THE POINTS STICK IN THE HOLES AND CAUSE THE VALVE NOT TO WORK. Most people wait until the AIC valve sticks in the high idle position, before buying new valve."
The link to his actual page is below.
Hope this helps!
