Re: '97 Escort Problem
Have someone check for codes set in computer.
Possibly bad idle air control motor. Good luck |

Bypass valve
If yoru car starts to race as soon as you start it, there is a very good chance your problem is with the air bypass valve. I am not sure how the '97 is set up, but on the '94 it is a valve on the end of the intake manifold sitting right on top the throttle body. Replace the valve and its gasket.
