my car has started flooding itself at junctions and started randomly hesitating on accelerating at around 4krpm but sure its my afm and not enough air as its smokey at start up. not run this engine on injection before since rebuild as was running carbs so sure my air/fuel is wrong. got another afm to put on but will be taking it to a tuning guy near me who is really good. not checked my plugs yet but i know they will be black | |

mine did this today when i tried another air flow meter. is a 1.2 though, but symptoms were EXACTLY the same. i put it down to the other meter being dodgy and used my original one. works ok now | |

take a spark plug out and see what colour it is. Normally it should be white, if its black then its over fuelling. When was it last serviced? | |

Dont know how u would test it m8.Another thought try replacing the fuel filter as i had the same thing happen on a golf i had but would only do after driving a while.I spent a fortune trying to fix it and turned out to be the fuel filter clogged up, put new one in and it ran perfectly. | |
