Sounds about right Jimbob.
When you spray the water/detergent mix around, you are giving the bits a good soaking, aren't you?
You need the solution to cover and seal any leaks for a couple of seconds so you can pick up that the idle has changed.

Also may pay to do a compression test both wet and dry. A leaking valve can cause similar problems.

check for a burnt valve. before it gets too hot, place your hand over the tailpipe. If your hand gets sucked in occasionally you have a burnt valve
