I think Ojc mean Idle Control Valve. Both my ICV and EGR valve both went on my X12XE Corsa B. Orange engine management light came on both time. I had similar problems with both - horrible idle, struggling to accelerate, flat spots through the rev range (especially 4k revs) and smell of petrol when starting up on cold mornings.

More likely IACV, always going on them.

How can u tell if the egr valve needs replacing without a diagnostics test on a corsa b x12xe engine?
