rite here we go.
im still experiencing the same problem ive been having for months where i have sod all power in my 1.4 16v corsa b.
Best way i can descrbe it is when i start it sometimes it will idle like crap missfire and sometimes cut out. when driving it will sometimes for no reason start missing. and it has gone very flat and lost its power, when pulling off on a hill it feels like it wants to stall.
Here is a list of things i have changed:
-Plugs
-Leads
-Coil pack
-Idle valve
-throttle pipe (split)
-vacum pipe to map sensor
-temp sensor
-cat and downpipe
-map sensor
-crank sensor
-cam sensor
-egr valve
-throttle position sensor
-run a compression test and all cylinders are 13bar. all ok
-changed various dodgy pipes and cleaned all others
-cleaned injectors with redex
-replaced head gasket and all other gaskets
-exhast not blocked
ive taken it to vauxhall who plugged it in to tech 2 and there was no faults, although the mechanics there did agree there is something wrong.
has anyone got any ideas this has cost me loads and i dont no what to do now. if i can fix it i should have one of the best 1.4 16v engines around as its practically new.
any help would be much appreciated thanks

Hi mate, sorry to hear about your car, the same thing has happened to me aswell. Is there any way it could be the ecu?

vauxhall checked the ecu and said it was fine. what was the problem with yours?
ive just ordered a lambda i think its the only thing left to try is it posible that this could cause a problem???
