Mend Escort Idle Help

1985 Escort XR3i?

I have a mk3 escort that sometimes seems to run a little idle - can anyone help on how I can change this, i think it may be the throttle cable as the clasp comes off when I put my foot down.

Also the speedo does not work although again sometimes appears to bounce - where do i check if this has come loose?

Thankyou in advance for your help

speedo drives on these were bad for wearing which could be down to worn diff bearings which was also a common fault on these,you will have to remove the speedo drive from the g/box and if it is shaped like an hour glass then you could try a new drive,if it packs in again in a short while then would suspect diff bearings
