Well as corsa sport aint much cop i thought i'd rely on the trusty people on here!

Lately my corsa sri doesnt seem to have as much ooomph as it did, seems to be a bit sluggish, almost as if its holding back. I also noticed that somewhere near where the injectors are it seems to be making a kind of ticking noise. I dont really know an awful lot about injection engine so was wondering if someone would point me in the right direction!

Its a 1.4 8v by the way.

The ticking noise is the injectors operating,in my experience head gasakets tend to be a bit of a weak point on these,other than that,weak coil pack?,cat damaged?...

Has it had a service recently? Fuel filter & plugs & leads. Try wiping the leads down with GT85 or WD40, try to eliminate any damp.

They have to be ultrasonically cleaned. About ?50ish to have them cleaned iirc.
The ticking is normal.
