    Anyone experienced an acceleration delivery problem on the injection
    engines?

    When you move off from traffic lights etc.. it feels like its going to stall
    and then will just take off after a second.

    Please help, its really pissing me off and any day now someone will hit me
    from the back.

    Thanks,

    Declan

    Only just started doing it or is the car new to you altogether? I hate
    corsas for this very reason - they are fly-by-wire throttles with the engine
    management deciding how much to open the throttle to keep emmisions low
    etc - means everything happens slightly delayed and sort of like your
    accelerator has an elastic link in it. Horrible - precisely the reason I
    wont buy a new car. Had to drive a courtesy car corsa for 3 weeks - cornered
    nicely for a car its size, stopped bloody well, but any interaction with the
    engine was dissappointing to say the least.

    It's not quite the same since mine isn't a XSI, but it started that way and
    got worse... in the end it actually stalled and was damn hard to start
    again... conclusion: new fuel injectors and a lot of money...

    Whats the mileage of your car? You could try to check thoses injectors
    out... but it could be also some electronical problem...

    Sorry can help you more!
