Cutting out problems...

[MicraPRO]

Heya guys...
Clodos got an issue with what I believe to be the throttle body, when coming to a junction and stopping the engine dies and has to be restarted with the key,
Or just when slowing down...
And she says if very down on power,
Almost lagging when she trys to pull away from anywhere.
Really need your advice gents thanks.

no, they,re the same mate, the idle control valve tends to need a couple of runs to re-calibrate after a t/b swap tho
