Hello All,
I currently have an intermittent fault, with my engine. It seems to cut out when the engiene is running idol and when the clutch is dipped.
Before it cuts out it shudders slowley like it would when stalling. Aparently there could be two faults with it, one is Air Flow Meter and/or the Body Throttle.
btw my car is a 1.0 corsa B 98 12V
Can anyone help me, or reconfirm in the fault?

remove the ARM and clean it using either brake/clutch cleaner or carb cleaner.
also remove the tophat from the throttle body and using carb cleaner, clean the tb untill its shiny.
this might help but the best thing to do is to see if there are any codes on the ecu memory
