Opel Vectra 2.0 DI 2000

I have a problem with my vectra TD.

From cold things are ok

Once up to temperature driving normally is fine.

If you have to stop for a light the engine light comes on and power is severly reduced.

This could be very interesting at a junction or roundabout.

The car is underpowered for maybe 15 20 seconds then seems to normalise.

If the car is left to cool down for a bit then the problem dissapears again until the temp comes up.

Gave the car a service recently this didn't help.

Any ideas?

Sounds like an engine management issue.

Yeah

Might have to bite the bullet and get opel to put a computer on it.

Just means little Timmy will have to wait for his operation.

Poor Timmy.
