Mine is a v6 so will be different but the plenum is the big lump (white/cream in colour) on top of the engine that the air flows into before having the fuel injected into it and being drawn into the pots. If you look I am sure there will be helpful photographs on the OOF site.

If you continue to struggle (most of us do from time to time) get in touch with Darth Loo-Knee via the forum, he knows his stuff!  ;)

The only way to really nail it is to find a garage who can 'smoke' the inlet to identify the tiny air leak which will be causing it
