Default Racing Fiesta (not as exciting as it sounds)

Hi,

I have a 97 P Fiesta 1.25LX. Excellent second car but recently the engine has started racing like mad when I start it up. It's like a problem with the automatic choke?

When the problem first started I used to dip the clutch (even in neutral) and it calmed the engine down, but now I've got to drive about half a mile before the revs take it easy. It's starting to get a bit embarrasing at the first couple of lights I reach (oh and the driveway in the morning).

Anyone came across this,?

Easy problem to fix?

Get rid of it?



Thanks, Wull..[/align]
