i put a 1.6 se engine in my sri corsa.ever since iv had it iv had problems.sometimes it feels sliggish and it is crap up 2 bout 3000 rpm then it goes ok.when i put my foot 2 da floor it holds back then if i let off a bit it gets better.iv changed the coil pack,the ecu,the ht leads,the spark plugs the crank sensor.i thought it mite b the iac valve.
also sumtimes there is a whistleing sound.
any ideas?
thanks

wot engine u got matty?there so many fings it cud b .im guna end up changing the whole engine soon.but i dont wanna cus of how quick it is.
so far iv changed the fuel pump,fuel rail ,injectors,spark plugs ,ht leads,coil pack,crank sebsor,iv even dun the head gasket.the only fing left it cud b is the 2 sensors on the inlet manifold or the 1 in the inlet pipe or the temp sensor in the back of the head.so if i was u i wud try them 4 sensors b4 ne fink else.
