EDIT: I posted this before seeing your post, i'll give it another go tomorow maybe when it stops raining.

Had another go but didn't want to force it too hard so its back in the car now.

Sometimes when i turn the ignition on the green power LED on my Vis indicator will quickly illuminate, then it will go back to the two red LED's like normal. And i still get that 'kick' at 3k RPM.

Well to update on this thread. I did not test the car after i refitted the power actuator yesterday (as i saw no point as i hadn't actually done anything) However, while driving it to my garage this morning to get the reluctor rings done the VIS indicator was showing the power motor to be working properly again! All lights illuminating as they should!

Is it possible that the cam had somehow popped out of the arm in the plenum all by itself, and i had just put it back in its place?

Unless the plenum is about to die and there is lots of excess movement, I cant see the cam coming out of the arm, You said the light flickered? May have been a dodgy connection, or the Vis motor may just be tempermental. Id be tempted to take it out and at least clean any oil out of it.
