Buy a can of carb cleaner from haldords / fps/ and motor factors.

1. On the intake side of your engine remove the big bulky looking piece of plastic with the wires going to it.
2. Spray carb cleaner through it making sure you get the small thin piece of wire running trough the middle, DO NOT touch this as you will break it.
3. Spray the other parts of the intake system ( throttle body etc)
4. Replace and take the car for a drive and see if it's any better.

This should cost no more that £6 and take less than 20 mins.
