im guessing its a 1.1 Cfi - this is a common problem.


can be either the throttle position sensor or the idle speed control valve usually.

TPS, apparently from ford they are v expensive, been told about £50, dont know how true that is though.
i always had success with just cleaning it and the rest of the carb, and checking the plug connections.
