OP
its hard to explain it just seems that when i accelerate some times it feels like its holding back for a second then suddenly i got a burst of power
i have replaced my plugs, feul filter, and have recently replaced the cat for the mot and have got a new lambna sensor which has been on since last year
at first i thought it was the performance manifold i had but put it all back to standard and still have the issue
some one told my to replace the dizzy cap and rotary arms so i will try that when i get paid any thing else that it could be maybe the throttle body?????

was it a brand new throttle body you put on or one from the scrappys??My car does this, I struggled to explain as well, i changed fuel filter, exhaust system, air filter, throttle body and it still does it so i have just been putting up with mine, if you manage to find a solution let us knowit really bugs me sometimes haha

I did take a look down the throttle body to check the airflow meter but didn't quite know what I was looking for lol any one got a pic of a good one and a bad one to help me out thanks

no thats the only thing is the slight hesitation

I think what sp13rsy is describing is similar to whats happening with mine but if it is, then re-soldering the throttle body wont solve it, it stopped my car from constantly stalling for a month, then it started again thats why i decided to get another. I think its more likely to be the air flow meter because its not wanting to stall (mine isnt anyway) its just like a slight hesitation, like when i go into third its like a lag in power (thats what mine is doing, i dont know if yours is similar?) But if you fancy giving it a go anyway, the circuit board is behind a silver plate at the side of the throttle body. If your looking down on the throttle body from the front of the car its on the left side of it, its just siliconed on, so just get a screw driver or whatever you can down to pry it out, thats all i did, then with a soldering iron, get it as hot as it gets then just touch onto all the soldered parts on the circuit board, until they go runny then let them set again and thats it from what i remember, then just get some more silicone and stick that plate back on.

its part of the throttle body underneath the air box.
