Nearly stalling, or burning rubber?



  2003 1.4 16V Clio
Hi guys,

I recently had my throttle body cleaned on my 1.4 16V because it was idling at really low revs and felt like it was about to stall. Since it was cleaned, it idles fine, but now when I set off, the car feels like it's about to stall OR I burn rubber - there seems to be no middle ground :smile:

Also a couple of times it kangaroo'd when I was setting off. Any ideas?!

I don't have crap clutch control I promise!

my map sensor was giving similar problems, got oil in it over time, gave it a good clean and it made a world or difference, also solved some cold starting issues, best thing is to get a obd reader with live data and see what the sensors are doing as u drive...

Cleaned the sensor, and if anything it's made it worse. Really jerky acceleration most of the time in 1st and 2nd. Can't seem to pull away smoothly!

Yep I did. Measured everything when I was driving and all the sensors looked to be doing their jobs!
