Poor engine response when cold...

[Adamiiedude]

Easy dudes! I've notice when my engine is cold I'll sometimes come to exploit a junction for example and it doesn't respond and doesn't want to move until I let off but when I do that the car lurches like a mother bitch! So I have to take it out of gear slam it back in then floor it, Either that or when I'm in climbing a hill in second it feels like it's going to die! it idles alright drives alright when it's got a bit of heat in it but I don't know what it can be!

Spark plugs are fine, Air filter is a K and N high air flow panel so it's got enough air fuel pressure is spot! Only thing I can think is she's getting into her stroppy teenage years!!

Thanks dudes!

What year is it? Throttle body might want a nice overhaul

You shouldn't thrash your car when it's cold, jerking is throttle body fixable but just easier to source a new one!

My old micra used to jerk like mad when you let off, needed new throttle body!

it hasn't gone on mine yet and its 1999, it went on my 1997 one though, but i just dipped the clutch quickly when i let off so i could still drive smooth lol

Yeah yeah that's what I do and it's fine until I come to knock it off it's just when it's cold sometimes it just doesn't want any of it :')
