Hi

We recently purchased a 1998 1.2 clio for our daughter. It was driving OK when we purchased it two weeks ago. It has not been used for two weeks while we arranged tax and insurance. Yesterday when we tried to start it the battery was flat but this was OK after charge. Unfortunately we now have a problem with the choke jamming on and the car staying in high revs after starting. It would appear that there is some problem with a sensor relating to the cold weather. Can anyone advise?
