When I start my car in the morning the RPM's go sky high as if the choke is sticking on. Is there any way I can fix this? Tried kicking it off but no joy.

Hello, I'm Danny.

I sounds like you might be having an issue with the idle air control valve. Here is a tutorial showing what is involved:

I can attach you a picture of its exact location if you get back to us with your Ford model. We don't have any information on a Ford KA. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
