I just bought a 1995 Geo metro 4cl automatic with 166000km on it. It seems to idle really high when in gear. I think it is affecting my fuel efficiency and will probably wear down my breaks alot faster. why is this happening? |

Welcome cmathieson Vacuum leak on the intake is one possibility. Sometimes on the power brake booster. Inoperative ISC (idle speed control) is another. |
