corsa gsi running problems

[ferrari1783]

ive got a L redg corsa gsi so its not the ecotech engine,its a 1.6 16v

the problem is when i put my foot down it goes,then all of a sudden holds back for about 5 seconds then goes again

could this be down to the spark plugs or somethink else

has anyone got the gap for the spark plugs so i can check them or any more info on what it could be that i could check.

any help would be grateful

thanks

yeah only just started doing it aswell,just my look.its got a k&n on it,could that be the problem.

if its all dusty n dirty try cleanin it

[ferrari1783]

just looked at it and noticed the silver bit on the end of the filter that says k&n has come off,surely that would not mate a difference would it.
