Timed up correctly? blocked air filter? fuelling problems? The rolling road operator should have given you advice to be honest

don't think it will be because it needs a service some how.
did it get a timing belt done recently? could be timing done wrong. or the usual sensors.

i think its been a gradual loss in power tbh which is why i havent noticed i think i should have asked for a retest as i kept with a phase 2 106 rallye 1.6 8v with 112 bhp on the way back, confused big style, engine management comes on then light goes out when fires up isnt that normal? im not expecting people to fix it im just asking where to start without worrying loads and getting some un-neccesary expensive work done

You sure it's not a 1.2?
When was it last serviced? Might have a few faults running through the ECU.
