On my Puma 1.7 the idle speed remains too high(about 1200 RPM) after coming off the throttle when slowing down. It does go down to 800RPM after the car has stopped for a few seconds. A bit annoying. Any thoughts?
 
Hi
I note you are new to this site as this is your first post. Welcome to the site.
Unlike many other car Forums ,there is a very useful search box for the site.(top right of the page)

If you type in your current issue & any future Puma issues , I am certain you will find useful info to resolve them as they will in most cases have been discussed before.

Initial advice includes:

Cleaning the Idle control valve with Carb cleaner , checking for airleaks especially the small vacuum rubber hoses on the lower RHS of the inlet manifold and clutch peddle switch wire can all cause this issue.
There is also a How to guide .

Hope that info points you in the right direction :thumbs:
