Trying to pull away is dodgy to say the least! Its almost like its got a fuel defiency and then suddenly wham, the power picks up. Need them wiping off the chip really.

surely not as bad as mine though? Its like my 1st ever car, the carb would get shit in it and cause me to be stuck at 5mph. thats what it feels like! sometimes i can drive through it, sometimes it stalls.

yeah I wouldn't judge it by that one you had pete, I dread to think what the fuelling on that was like. Seeing as how the "remap" on it seemed to consist of an adjustable fuel pressure reg.

Hayesey's car was deffo in need of mapping - yours may be the same. I'd only commit to spending money on a remap once you're 100% sure that everything else is in good health though.

im gonna get the coil changed along with the pulley to a vernier but ive gotta get it working first so i can get the bottom end checked to make sure its not fubared! injectors, plugs, gaskets, sensors are all new.

A compression tester should only cost £20-£30, that'll tell you a lot about the bottom end. Did you sort the suspected alternator problem?
