just got it 'semi' serviced... had exhaust sorted as it was rattling and wheel bearings done..... but the problem is the acceleration is ultra sluggish, everytime i accelerate its as if its about to cut out, like there is no petrol or something..... pretty certain there is enough oil
anyon else have this problem or could help, cuz ive got to take it to a dyno somewhere to find what the prob is but i heard its expensive?

It's sluggish because it's a 1.2...

But seriously, hmm does it have an induction kit?

Do you have an induction kit? they can bugger about with the AFM and cause it to feel likes its gonna die. I had a 1.0 12v for 2 months and put an induction kit in for that time and it used to cut out because of it.
