Hello there:



I have a Ford Escort 1994 (automatic trans.)with 74,000 miles. It was running fine until recently. Now, it kind of lost power, it will start just fine but I can only go about 20 miles per hour or so. The transmition change gears just fine so I don't think that is the problem. A friend had told me he had similar problem that ended up been a speed sensor or a sensor of a kind ( $35 ) that controls or regulate the speed ??



I don't remember his exact words and I cannot reach him. I will take it to the mechanic but I would like to get somewhat familiar with the problem.



I would appreciate any help in the subject.



Regards,



Nos

I had same sort of problem with my escort. Turned out to be very dirty fuel filter for me.

Inside is the sensing unit for air to fuel ratio mixing.. over time these wires get gummed up and need cleaning/replacement. They will cause the car to intermittently have erratic idle and/or highway operation. Start there...
