look for an air leak
as Mr C says, check for an air leak, you can use a can of carb cleaner and spray lightly around the inlet manifold ect, any airleaks will be detected by the engine picking up revs. also as your looking at the engine on the right hand side, theres a rubber t-piece vac pipe halfway down the cylider head, towards the back of the engine, it melts & splits, this is a known cause for running problems,
