bit of ford subject this.
Mine is a bugger to start and once it's going it will work ok for five minutes then thats it nothing. And weirdly only likes revving on its own when i let go of the throttle on and of so to speak trying to keep it going. It's all in the right place etc etc.
Any ideas from anyone.
cheeRS in advance
