The only user adjustable part regarding tick over is the thorttle cable. Open the bonnet and look down the front of the engine. here you will see the thottle cable on top of the injector pump. If your engine is running slowly move the quadrant attached to the end of the cable until the tick over is raised slightly and sounds even but not racing there will now be a gap to the stop, wind out the stop until it reaches the quadrant. Now the cable will need to be adjusted. Follow the cable to the adjuster the other side of the spring and wind it out until the cable taut but not raising the revs. if your revs are too high reverse the process. good luck Mrk

Why would a 1997 ford fiesta lose power at 3500 revs in all gears?

Assuming not diesel. Could be your catalytic converter becoming blocked I presume that the car is ok when ticking over? It is most likely to be the fuel pump relay switch, basically the car is not getting enough petrol for you to accelerate but is just enough to tick over. Do you also have a problem with the lights coming on and the fuel gauge not registering?
