hi, just got my corsa back on road after the crank sensor went and was replaced. it now runs fine when its moving. but if i slow down it will bog out. i have adjusted the timing so it ticks over nicely, but it still continues to bog out. any ideas what i t can be?

okay cheers for the help, sometimes even when i start it up, it will just keep bogging even when i press down on the throttle, and then eventually cut out..

I had one last week, if you planted the throttle it would bog, i.e just not want to rev but feathering the throttle, it was fine.
I cleaned the throttle body out (it was terrible) and all was resolved.
