hi, my corsa 1.6 sport is having a lot of difficulty starting, it sounds like it wants to but it just wont go, eventually wen i get it started its fine for a minute but then becomes very jerky and tends and will then cut out if i let the revs go below 1500 or so.

the car was stood for three months and was fine before, i put new spark plugs on and that cured it for 10 minutes, then a new crank sensor which cured it for half hour then back the same.

any ideas wot it could be, was thinking the coil pack but it seems more chokey than missfire, please help... im desperate lol

thanks

Maybe icv or some vacuum hoses blocked up, i'd pull some hoses off and check them or maybe run some carb cleaner through it. Also I'd just do a oil and filter change for the sake of 20/30 quid.

have u tried taking off ur egr valve and cleaning it cus they can stick open as they are only supost to open up at higher revs so when they stick open it will cut out at low revs.
