Having some trouble with the corsa, when running it drops power and comes straight back, pulling away it jerks like a kangaroo can't explain it. Water was leaking from the header tank onto a junction box of some kind below it but i have sorted this leak but the problem has not gone away. The left hand driveshaft knuckle is going also so not sure if it is possible its just this. Can't understand what is going on, just feels like the engine loses power for split seconds then comes back a lot!. any ideas? Also Finally it has started stalling on idle as well!

no codes popping up at all, air flow meter is pressed in after i fitted the strut brace the wires are tight with the metal. might try taking the strut brace off and freeing the Air Flow meter off a bit. ICV havnt touched that yet crank sensor havn't looked at that yet either. Throwing no codes at all
