Have the same problem. Think its the a part in the inlet system or needs new spark plugs. Its probably a 1196cc car too.

hi guys i need your expert help.

i have a 96 corsa merit 1100cc car and over the past week or so it has developed the following problem.

when i am moving up into 3rd(or 4th) gear the power is dropping and the car is juddering and even though i put the accelerator to the floor it is only accelerating very slowly. pulling away in 1st or second is fine its just when it goes up into 3rd.

this doesnt happen all the time but is becoming more frequent.

can anyone help before the problem gets worse (and expensive!):boggle:
