I suspect using the term kangarooing may be out of place in a technical post...
My 1992 Panda CLX Fire has for a while not been happy when sitting in stop/start traffic. Will bring to a halt and it will stall or nearly stall. It will immediately re-start but will cough and kangaroo and reluctantly go although seemingly needing much more revs and choke (and some verbal, human pleading). This behaviour is really similar to a 2006 post by Panda Type Thingy (11/09/2006) but seems that post was unresolved.
Also, on the open road at 50+ pushing the accelerator for more will cause a cough and shudder before responding. It seems like the car is getting momentarily starved of fuel each time.
It starts from cold and does local running around reliably with no problem.
The only thing that looks visibly wrong is a split in the black rubber pipe that links the side of the airbox with the top of the engine. i was planning to tape this up as a temp fix to eliminate it as a cause.
I would be grateful for your insights and advice. Thanks
