Default SportKa Revs not Dropping

Out driving today with engine cold and when I would slip the clutch revs would not drop away instantly.

Also would idle at 1500 rpm.

Gave it a good thrashing and seemed OK.

But for a while was not the best as no engine breaking!

Is this normal when cold? Dodgy ECU? Sticky throttle?

Sounds like a leak in the inlet manifold gasket.
