Hi.
ive been driving my 1.2 12v for just over a year now with no problems unit now (just as the warrenty has ended). Recently my car has had the coil packs fail which i replaced, but now when i try to pull away from a junction the car takes a long time to respond and then is sluggish to accelerate. Anyone got any ideas that could help?

Ive had the car tested for faults today but showed up clear.

yer it will be spark plugs, had mine go the other week so just banged a new set in. good as new :)
the aa man told me to change them because when they arent firing they get flooded and damage the electrode.
