Re: '93 Escort Surges & Poor Idle

I just swapped out an engine in a 95 Escort with a 1.9 and the idle would jump from 2000 rpm to almost 0 back and forth. I swapped the IAC valve on top of the throttle body and it fixed the problem. Thanks for the help in these posts. Saved me a lot of time and money.

Once I got it running I found that the heater did not work. The temp gage also did not work. I pulled out the thermostat and found it was broken. I will fix that tomorrow and be ready to go.

Thanks.
