Opel Corsa jerking when the engine is operating temp

Asked by BeuatifulMess Nov 24, 2016 at 04:14 AM about the 2006 Opel Corsa

Question type: General

I have a 2006 1.4i corsa Lite. I bought it secondhand about 2 weeks ago.
As soon as it reaches operating temp, it starts stuttering and jerking and
even stalled on me once or twice. I was told to replace the fuel pump relay,
which I did and for 2 days all seemed well. Then it started acting up again. I
have noticed that it only happens when the engine is running temp and
almost always in bumper to bumper traffic. What could be the problem?

Check your pump pressure when the car is at operating temp, clean you throttle body and also change your fuel filter. You may want to consider a complete tuneup on the car

Mine does the temperature picks in traffic jams, but it all goes back to normal in hiway . What bugs me is the vigorous vibration it does at times. One guy said it's the low temperature. But now it does that even on normal temperature. I at times switch it off in traffic and run it again once the traffic moves. The past two days I been giving it high ravs even in traffic and the vibrations could stop. I'm worried about it cause I have replaced the head and it's not long I bought it.
