Hi,
I have a Corsa B - 1.2 16V club year 2000. Done 73k.
On Monday my car was running fine, however the next day there was a creaking noise coming from the engine. And now it stutters at any speed, like the fuel isn't getting through at all.
I have put injection cleaner in, hardly driven it since.
Any idea's what it could be?

Could it be the Ignition Coils and spark plugs?

Is the eml on? How is it at idle? Did you put diesel in it? Fuel filter been changed recently?
Oil, plugs, filters been changed recently?

It goes to about 1200, then slowly drops to around 900, and shudders.
Nope this started after i put a full tank of shell petrol in, normally i go to sainsburys.
Everything apart from Ignition Coil got changed in october done about 3000 miles since

Does the eml come on? Is Sainsburys good petrol? I generally don't buy petrol from supermarkets because of all the story's lol I'd try change the fuel filter and give it a thrashing through the revs and try clear any junk out

No light comes on. And i've had no problems with sainsburys one; going out for a drive later with trash it a bit.
