#1: hesitant when cold ? Author: CeeBee206, Location: LeylandPosted: Mon Jul 11, 2011 11:59 am ---- Hi, my 1.4 LX (2000 on W) almost cuts out when I accelerate when cold. It then picks up o.k. buy hiccups every time I have to press the accelerator after slowing down. As soon as it is up to temp it is fine. Any help gratefully received. Cheers.

Author: CeeBee206, Location: LeylandPosted: Mon Jul 11, 2011 12:48 pm ---- Tried that, but now noticed the revs go up and down if I open the throttle a bit when stationary. If I try and hold the revs on 2000 for instance, they go to 2500, back to 1500, back to 2500 and so on. I am keeping my foot perfectly still but revs will not even out. Is this connected ?
