The Ford Cougar is a large coupé car sold in the European market between 1998 and 2002. The car was named after a famous American muscle car from the Ford stable, the Mercury Cougar. It was originally intended to be the third generation Probe, but after a rationalisation of the three coupés available in the United States, the Probe name was dropped in favour of the Cougar.

A quick look at a faulty idle control valve on my Ford Escort 1.8 Ghia. The symptons will be very similar across every Car, especially Ford. This particular car is my Ford Escort Ghia Cabriolet 1.8 - Year 1997 A video of me replacing the ICV can be found here: www.youtube.com Disclaimer Obviously do not even attempt this replacement if you are not a competant mechanic.
