if the light has stayed on for about 10 seconds do the paper clip test and see what codes are stored in the ecu, even though the light isn't on now it should have stored the code if it was on 10 secs or more | |

hmm well apart from the list of things mattk said, the only thing I can think of is loss of compression. A compression test on your cylinder head will tell you if thats playing up ;) | |

not 2 sure, could be loss of compression. Mite hav 2 get pressure test for cylinder head. My head gasket blew a little while after the problem your experiencing. Is the coolant level stable and is there and oil leaks? | |

i drive a W reg corsa 1.0L 12v (shocking engine i know:P) but for the last few weeks, every now and again, when im accelerate from low revs, theres a loss of power for about a second or so (like as if ide taken my foot off the accelerator), then all of a sudden the acceleration comes back. |
