Default 95 escort cabriolet stalling

Just got the wife's escort cab on the road today. First proper drive. When we put the roof down the car kept stalling at junctions and traffic lights.

I know you can't raise or lower the roof with the engine running. So is there a switch somewhere that isn't working, and the "car" thinks the roof isn't fully down?

As a side note, the idle does "hunt" at times. But never stalls. I have put that down to the engine not being run for over 6 months and just needs to "clear its throat"

Thanks,
John
