Hi,
My Bravo 1.2 16v developed a strange problem. When I try to pull of hard from a junction engine sounds like its running on 3 cylinders and sporadically catches on. Sometimes it backfires. This is not the case if I accelerate with minimum input or at high rpm. Problem seems to be related to air temperature. Near or below 0 C it runs almost fine but not perfect. Also its less noticeable with cold engine.
Iv'e changed sparks, cables and coil but problem remains. Also tmap sensor looks fine. If warmed up by hand ntc changes resistance and reading fits specifications. Resetting ECU doesn't fix the problem.
Any ideas?
