Right, went to a garage yesterday as my cars playing up, described what happens to him, he said sounds like Air Flow Meter.
Spoke to my mate last night, he said i dont have an Air Flow Meter, so went back today, and he said it must be the whole Throttle Bodie system.
Anyone know how much these are, and how hard they are to fit?
Bear in mind ill be selling the car after xmas, so i dont want performance ones, or expensive ones.
Its a 1996 1.4 Sport, X14XE i think.

wont be the throttle body, if anything it just needs a good clean up. that engine doesnt have a MAF sensor either, it has a map sensor.
