Default Help needed for poor running sapphire 1.6 pinto

As above, My dads got a sapphire H plate 1.6 lx and its not running very well.
It runs well half of the time but then the revs keep running high (especially at junctions) for some reason, and always seems to get hot. He thought it might be the flap in the air box that had failed so recently got hold of another and it's not changed anything.
Any help or ideas as to what's up with it would be great as I'll be having the car in a few months.
cheers, Andy
