Is your throttle cable frayed? Sounds a bit of a longshot but that sounds like similar symptoms to my mates car and that was the problem then........

sTu III Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 will get both looked into when i get my car back, it died completely on my stepfather on the motorway this morning Check your MAF sensor too. I had this problem with my old Escort. Was quite embarassing when I pulled up to roundabouts and my car was revving its nuts off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
