Hey guys, can anyone help me with this problem. My 1996 corsa 1.2 hatch has recently been a bit dodgy, one minute it will be driving fine, the next, it idles between 1000 and 3000 rpm and/or dies and cuts out. If i try to throttle when its doing this it is like the choke is on, and it either dies or missfires. This happened once before and i stripped the carb down and cleaned it, i also put the standard exhaust and air box back on and it solved the problem. This time it seems worse and putting the standard exhaust and air box on doesn't help. I am now at a loss and am thinking it might be engine management problems. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHATS HAPPENING.
