1995 Corsa 1.2 hesitation - lix
Hi,

Currently have loan of my father's 1.2 Corsa (8v engine) which is suffering from hesitation on pulling away when the engine is cold. The problem appears to go away once the engine is warm and doesn't recur if the engine is switched off, left to rest for a short period (say an hour or two) and then restarted.

Any suggestions on what may be the cause? Car runs fine apart from this - just appears to "bog down" as if suffering from fuel starvation.

Thanks,
Alex
