what's wrong with car?

Post by C0rsa-B-1L »

I have problems with my 1L corsa, when you get to 3 and a half thousand revs in any gear the car struggles and slugs a bit, then the engine management light comes on????
I fitted a custom air filter and this has made it worse.

Anybody got any ideas???

thanks
