Choke won't release December 24, 2007, 09:11:01 AM I have an 82 Cougar with a 5.0, and once I get going, it revs real high and I can't get it lower it unless I shut it off for awhile, and is a big problem in winter conditions. I replaced the coolant temperature sensor, but that didn't help. Thanks for any input on this. Happy Holidays! Quote Selected
