Hi Guys,

The 1.6 16v engine in my 1997 Escort Si has problems idling. When you start it up th revs float up and down between 500 and 1250 revs. I'll drive the car along, pull up at some lights, it'll idle fine for about thirty seconds and then the revs well float up and down again. Vibrations can be felt through the car. I've given the inlet a clean out and checked there are no blockages in the air filter system.

Do fords throw up dash lights when there is an electrical fault?
