Hello there Ford owners! So recently my Ford Ka has been letting me down in quite some dangerous situations and I would really like to solve this issue as fast as possible. So I have this Ford Ka, 2001 model with a 1.3 Endura-E petrol engine. Besides the usual rust problems I haven't had any other major issues with it except the following: I'm driving around town for let's say 10-20 minutes, engine is warmed up and all that, I rev it up to let's say ~3-4k rpm, put it in neutral and the engine stalls. Just like that. After revving the engine,it stalls, no matter cold or hot (usually when it's a bit hotter). I've cleaned the ICV (Idle Control Valve) today but no difference at all. The engine doesn't have problems firing up after it stalls, it's starts just perfectly. I'd rather do all the repairs myself as I'm saving on buying a new car and don't really want to spend too much money at mechanics.

Here is a link to the video with the problem.

Feel free to ask any questions about the problem! Thank you!

So after some more research and testing I have found the problem: it was, after all the IDC valve (EGR) , even though I have cleaned it, the little electric motor in it was broken and did not work anymore. I've bought a second-hand IDC valve (EGR) and now the engine is running great.
