97 s10 reving high as if the engine were extremely cold or the throttle cable were getting stuck.?

97 s10 4cyl 2.2l. Recently did a trans swap. Converted from auto to manual since then i've been having very high reving especially when pressing the clutch and changing gears. This high reving also occurs when the engine just started to matter how hot the engine is. it will still rev high. I have already changed the TPS and Air control sensor, Coolant Temp Sensor and the problem still exists.

    did you change the computer off the one that was a standard shift,because that needs to be done also,and i know you probably removed the throttle cable from the throttle body,i switched one over for a customer about a year ago and i had to go back and get a computer from a truck that was a standard shift,the computer on the truck was meant to be used with an automatic and it wouldn't work with a standard shift transmission,after changing it i never had any more problems from it,also make sure all the ground wires are hooked back up on it, one loose one and the computer won't ever reset its self,good luck with it.

    Your husband became into particularly superb whilst revving the seventy seven Honda Civic, yet that's barely considering that's a carburated engine. because of the fact the ninety seven Ford Escort is an E-FI motor vehicle (Electornic-gasoline injected), there is not any choose for the extreme rev's. the ecu (digital administration Unit) interior the motor vehicle controls the quantity of rev's for the period of chilly initiate and could at last replace back as quickly as at not (widespread working temparature). i won't be in a position of affiliate the extreme rev's for the reason for the alternative engine yet i'd anticipate that his already damaging practices on heat up characteristic further in direction of his utilising behavior. to boot, a 1997 Ford Escort is a especially unreliable motor vehicle. honestly in 1997, any Ford is especially unreliable, up till those days that's. they have those days all started going in direction of jap technologies and function when you consider that superior.
