:lol:

from what laurence was telling me today i think doing a big service would be a good idea along with having the wiring looked at.

probably plugs or leads they normally cause missfire under load if they start tracking out.


could this make car run lean aswell

Got a strange problem just need suggestions or even solution

my corsa xe is running idle bobs about a wee bit but from 2000 rpm - 2500 rpm the engine is sluggish and doesnt pull at all

so in 3 rd gear at 30 if i put my foot down it coughs and splutters it does this in 4 th at 40 and 5th at 50 mph these are allr around 2000 - 2500 rpm

no eml has come up or anything
