Thanks Jondee , Did your first solution: made a blank aluminium gasket, and also removed the 2 small hoses ( made a loop) .
What I found is so strange : removing and retesting the AAV , fully working !
Problem is from one of the two small hoses leading to AAV .
The one connect to the solid pipe aside block is hot water full !
But the one coming from the rear of water pump is empty !
And the last fault I found Confused

???
I tested the Thermostat ,in boiling water , with no move .....
Had a try with two other , and got no reaction .
I heated the back of thermostat with a direct flame , and got it open !!!!
I guess I'm near the fault! Order a new thermostat and will test it in boiling water!

With the blank gasket under AAV , idle is smooth and stable .

Many thanks for your help , very useful
Regards
Phil
