Best get it checked by a diesel shop.
The Zycell pump used in your wagon is also in the intercooled version of the Mistral and some Mitsis and toyotas. They are know to suffer the same thing. The worst part is that the idle is only an annoyance but unless you have a pyrometer fitted you wont know about the other problem as it only shows in the exhaust gas temp. Another member in CHCH fitted his pump to 3 replacement engines before he found out what was happening in under 12 months. All the engines were toast.
hopefully its something else
Sanding your knuckles before starting work can help. That way you cant skin them
