Poor idle

Currently on holiday in Switzerland and at an altitude of 1 mile. When the car is hot (it has been in the 30C here) it sometimes stalls at idle.

This may be due to the altitude? Or may be the idle control valve?

Have you got the air-con on when it stalls? - my car's done that a couple of times over the last few weeks.

Hope you're having a fab time in the Alps! - are you on the XK8 outing?
