Slow take off

Post by Ashgan »

Hey guys, just wondering if you could give me some idea about why my starion is doing something... Whenever it's a cold start i start up the car and go to take off and the car sort of lurches and slows the engine right down when i engage the clutch, unless i do it realy slow. By the time i stop and go to take off again (around the corner, so we're talking about 10 seconds later) it takes off normally.

Any ideas on why it's doing this?

Friends call me Ashgan or Ash... But you can call me failchanic. If there's a routine maintenance job that exists on a starion, then chances are i've failed at it.

First attempt fails include:
-Changing indicator light
-Changing spark plugs
-Changing belts
-Changing airfilter
-Changing oil
-Removing rear strut
-Replacing front strut
