'Hiccup' on low revs

[PJwebbs]

I have recently been noticing a 'hiccup' in power when at low revs and applying some throttle. Its just like a sudden splert of nothing right after i give it some gas, then its fine again and the revs climb. doesnt happen all the time just occasionally. Any ideas anyone? Just hope it aint the start of something big :S

i too have this problem when pulling away, as you have said not all the time

How old are you spark plugs? and when was the fuel filter last changed?

 

[bigup7]

have you had a fastchip remap?

How is the cold start-up ?

Mine has been been difficult to start , need to blip throttle a bit to keep her going. I'm thinking it's injector cleaning time again ! Will trie this afternoon.

It had a service about 3 months ago so i presume spark plugs are ok or they would have been changed, it hasn't been mapped yet and its ok when starting cold, no problems there. It hasn't happened since starting this thread, see what awaits today on the way to work.

Mine's done this for yonks, it had new sparks 40+k ago, new h/t leads about 10k ago, has had regular services/filter changes and even a replaced t/b.

I just live with it. Still goes like stink.

You've had spark plugs in for 40k+ miles... Wow.

The plugs last about 70k...
