Default nearly stalls when I dip the clutch ?

Hi,

Recently I have noticed that when I dip the clutch when I come up to a junction the revs will drop really low for a split second & nearly stall but then they rise up to the normal 900 rpm. Also it 'hunts' a bit, not all the time though. Anyone have any ideas what could be causing this ?

cheers, Duncan

My ERST did that a few weeks ago, and it was the sump gasket leaking.
Have got a slight prob now though - if anyone can help. Tickover seems to be a little high, and didnt use to be - any ideas?
