Yeah I know, the fact I have a 1989 Escort is the problem
The car won't idle correctly. Up until today, it wasn't a problem. When started, it would rev up to 3000 rpm+, then slowly come down to a normal range, and often, after being driven for awhile, when you put it in park, it revs in the 3000+ range. Then when started again, it revs very high. This morning I started it and it reved up to about 2000 then almost stalled over and over again until it would ultimately stalled. There is a part under the hood near the throttle body that seems to control the idle (can't remember the name) that I think I'm going to try to replace. My question is, could it be anything else, and has anybody had this problem before. The car has a 1.9L 4 cylinder engine. Before I start buying parts, I want to eliminate some things so I don't go broke.
thanks
