:zx11: hi friends
got a skoda felicia 1.3 gli mpi skoda engine. it used to have a miss when cold n would not start if it failed the first time had to be pushed. it seems as if it over flowed . now what i did was to remove the top black cover n cleaned the carbon build up over the butterfly . after trying to start the revs went very hi up to 1100 revs and as i drove they would stick up to 2500 revs until i hit on to the acc pedal then would drop down to 1200revs still very hi.
checked all vacuum pipes all ok i dont know what has gone wrong .

i am in kenya and this is the only skoda in the whole country:approve: pl need help to keep my car going.
