TINTOP: Zetec Gaining Revs
Ok having a little problem with my Tintop (1.8 MkI Focus) .
When driving and I dip the clutch the engine seems to rev up. Also when I lift off the throttle it seams to take an age to drop revs.
Have check Throttle cable and linkage and they are all free.
All suggestions welcome..
Point to note I had the Air box open today and cleaned the filter - car seems a wee bit better. MAF looks clean enough.
Scot's do it better in Kilts.

I had one do the same. Put a TPS on it and it solved it.
Also check idle control valve and make sure the throttle body is sealed on the manifold properly.

UPDaTE :
Went out and had a look today and found that the throttle cable linkage was sticking between the pedal and the throttle on the engine. So when I was
lifting off it would take a few second for the cable to slowly slide back to zero reves
So new cable from FORD me thinks. Get tomorrow and will let you know
