Vauxhall vectra 1997 stalling after water hose burst?

My vauxhall Vectra 1.8 1997 had a split in the water hose leading to the radiator whilst hot and drained much of the water, I first noticed when steam poured out along the motorway.
I have repaced hose/water but have found that the car starts fine but if I drive a few miles get out of the car for a few minutes drive away it will stall at almost the first stop such as junction .
Iwould be gratefull of any ideas.

sounds like the idle control valve, does the revs drop to below 500rpm then bounce back up then down again? if so could need the icv cleaning!
