toby1966 Posted September 13, 2011 Report Posted September 13, 2011 I HAVE A 1999 2.3 FORD GALAXY AND IT HAS DEVELOPED A PROBLEM IN THAT WHEN YOU PULL UP TO A JUNCTION AND STOP IT OVEREVS BADLY AND THEN SETTLES DOWN.ALSO WHEN YOU PUT YOUR FOOT DOWN TO SPEED UP THE R.P.M DOES NOT MATCH THE SPEED AND I THINK THIS IS CAUSING REDUCED FUEL EFFICIENCY.SO DOES ANYONE HAVE A FIX OR AN IDEA HOW TO APPROACH MY PROBLEM????????????? :rolleyes: Quote
